HP-UX Directory Server 8.1 configuration, command, and file reference
IMPORTANT:
Any schema loaded from another directory must be copied into the schema directory or the
schema will be lost when the server.
The schema reload task is initiated though the command line by creating a special task entry
which defines the parameters of the task and initiates the task. As soon as the task is complete,
the task entry it removed from the directory. For example:
dn: cn=example schema reload,cn=schema reload task, cn=tasks, cn=config
objectclass: nsDirectoryServerTask
cn:example schema reload
schemadir: /tmp/schema
The cn=schema reload task entry is a container entry for schema reload operations. The
cn=schema reload task entry itself has no attributes, but each of the task entries within this
entry, such as cn=task_ID, cn=schema reload task, cn=tasks, cn=config, uses the
schema reload attributes to define the individual reload task.
cn The cn attribute is used to identify a new task operation to initiate. The cn attribute value
can be anything, as long as it defines a new task.

The memberOf attribute is created and managed by the Directory Server automatically to display
group membership on the members' user entries. When the member attribute on a group entry
is changed, all the members' associated directory entries are automatically updated with their
corresponding memberOf attributes.
The cn=memberof task (and the related fixup-memberof.pl script) is used to create the
initial memberOf attributes on the member's user entries in the directory. After the memberOf
attributes are created, then the MemberOf Plug-in manages the memberOf attributes automatically.
The memberOf update task must give the DN of the entry or subtree to run the update task
against (set in the “basedn” attribute). Optionally, the task can include a filter to identify the
members' user entries to update (set in the “filter” attribute). For example:
dn: cn=example memberof, cn=memberof task, cn=tasks, cn=config
objectclass: nsDirectoryServerTask
