• The nsslapd-saslpath attribute is not migrated

If you migrate a Directory Server instance to HP-UX Directory Server 8.1, the

nsslapd-saslpath attribute is not migrated with the dse.ldif file on the new Directory

Server instance. The SASL libraries cannot be loaded.

Workaround: After you migrate the Directory Server to version 8.1, use the ldapmodify

utility to edit the cn=config directory entry. Set the nsslapd-saslpath attribute value

to match the value used in the previous version. Alternatively, you can shut down the version

8.1 Directory Server instance and edit the nssldapd-saslpath attribute value in the

dse.ldif file.

• Directory Server does not replicate all attributes

By default, the Directory Server does not automatically replicate all attributes to consumers

in the multi-master replication environment, including several password-associated attributes,

such as passwordRetryCount, retryCountResetTime and accountUnlockTime.

Workaround: To replicate these attributes, use the ldapmodify utility to set the

passwordIsglobalPolicy attribute to 1 in the cn=config entry. For example:

dn: cn=config

changetype: modify

replace:passwordIsGlobalPolicy

PasswordIsGlobalPolicy: 1

• The Windows Synchronization Service (Windows Sync) does not function correctly after

migrating from Red Hat Directory Server 7.1

After migrating from Red Hat Directory Server 7.1, the Windows Synchronization Service

fails to synchronize updates between Windows and HP-UX Directory Server.

Workaround: Follow these steps when you upgrade Window Sync services on a Windows

server from Directory Server 7.1 to HP-UX Directory Server 8.1:

1. Reboot the Windows system.

2. Perform a full resynchronization.

Use the following procedure to manually synchronize the Active Directory and Directory

Server. For more information, refer to the HP-UX Directory Server administrator guide.

a. Open the Directory Console.

b. In the Configuration tab, expand the Replication folder.

c. Expand the database name for which you enabled Windows synchronization.

d. Right-click the Windows synchronization agreement and select Initiate Full

Re-synchronization.
