#47487 enhance retro changelog
Closed: wontfix None Opened 10 years ago by lkrispen.

the retro changelog can be used by clients to retrieve changes from the server, kind of consumer initiated replication. For some operations like modrdn it would be helpful not only to have the dn and the changes, but also the nsuniqueid of the entry.

SunDS provides operational attributes: replicationCSN and targetUniqueId.

RHDS should also enhance its retro changelog


Life can be easy, when looking how to implement I noticed that the functionality is already there and can be configured in the Retro Changelog plugin:

nsslapd-pluginPath: libretrocl-plugin
nsslapd-pluginInitfunc: retrocl_plugin_init
nsslapd-pluginType: object
+ nsslapd-attribute: nsuniqueid:targetUniqueId
nsslapd-pluginEnabled: on
nsslapd-pluginprecedence: 25
nsslapd-plugin-depends-on-type: database

With syncrepl it would be helpful to have the entry available for deleted entries, otherwise it cannot be checked if the entry matches the search and access citreria.

A solution would be to define

nsslapd-pluginArg0: log-deleted

in the retro cl configuration. And have it checked for delete postop calls
