Hi,
Operation 1: I read there is no way of renaming a ou or an entry if it
has children.
Please refer:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ag/8.0/Creating_Directory_E...
new RDN: ou= alumini (keep existing values)
modifying RDN of entry ou=students,
o=school.com <
http://school.com>
ldap_rename: Operation not allowed on nonleaf
Since the ou students has child entries in it.
Operation 2: But, ldbm_modrdn.c file has the methods to rename the
child entries also when their parent entry is renamed.
i.e deleting the old parent DN and changing the new superior DN (new
parent modified using modrdn operation).
Example: moddn_rename_children
When the operation 1. is not allowed how Operation 2 is possible ?
What is the necessity of using methods inside
ldbm_modrdn.c file.
Those methods are only used for replication fix up operations
e.g. if
you rename a child entry on one server, and at the same time add
children to that same entry on another master, the replication fix up
code has to be able to reconcile those two conflicting operations.
If I am not wrong, can anybody clarify my doubt.
Thanks in advance,
Brown Diego.
