#3153 [RFE] Add a TNS schema to IPA
Closed: wontfix 5 years ago Opened 11 years ago by dpal.

By default in IPA

  1. Load schema:[[BR]]
    http://www.bolthole.com/solaris/98-oracle-openDS.ldif [[BR]]
    The easiest way would probably to just drop it into the schema directory.[[BR]]

  2. Create a container[[BR]]
    For example create a container[[BR]]
    cn=OracleTNS, dc=example, dc=com[[BR]]

  3. Create other necessary entries[[BR]]
    dn: cn=OracleContext, cn=OracleTNS, dc=example, dc=com[[BR]]
    cn: OracleContext[[BR]]
    objectClass: top[[BR]]
    objectClass: orclservice[[BR]]

dn: cn=OracleSID, cn=OracleContext, cn=OracleTNS, dc=example, dc=com[[BR]]
cn: OracleSID[[BR]]
objectClass: top[[BR]]
objectClass: orclservice[[BR]]
orclNetDescString: (description=(address_list=(address=(community=tcp.world)[BR](host=server.domain.com)(port=1521)))(connect_data=(sid=OracleSID)))[[BR]]

After that on the client following configuration would enable IPA to be used as TNT storage.[[BR]]

qlnet.ora:[[BR]]
names.directory_path= (ldap)[[BR]]

ldap.ora:[[BR]]
DIRECTORY_SERVERS = (ldaphost:port) [[BR]]
DEFAULT_ADMIN_CONTEXT = "cn=OracleTNS, dc=example, dc=com"[[BR]]
DIRECTORY_SERVER_TYPE = OID[[BR]]

This looks like fully separated feature that could be done as an addon which is installed additionally to existing server and configured similar to ipa-adtrust-install or ipa-dns-install (or a like).

Make a feature bug when cloned.
