Use Auto-Registered Attributes in an Object

To allow a DSA to use attributes from an LDAP client, even if those attributes are not defined in the DSA schema, you need to enable auto-registered attributes in a schema used by the DSA.

To allow an object class to use auto-registered attributes

  1. Open the schema file and find the object class that you want to update.
  2. Add auto-register-attributes to the may-contain list, as follows:
    schema set object-class prefix:2 = {
    ...
    may-contain
    	auto-register-attributes
    ...
    };
    
  3. Initialize the DSA.
