PK84702: NOT POSSIBLE TO CHANGE LDAP ATTRIBUTES WITHOUT CHANGING REALM NA ME

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The fix will make it possible to change all LDAP attributes
  using wp-update-standalone-ldap, except LDAP ID, LDAP host name
  and base DN, without changing the realm name. In order to
  change
  those three attributes, the realm name must still be changed.
  
  Observed exception when running ConfigEngine
  wp-update-standalone-ldap in order to update the LDAP
  bindPassword:
  [wplc-delete-federated-ldap-entitytype] id="..." Delete LDAP
  entity type - result:
  [com.ibm.websphere.wim.exception.WIMConfigurationException:
  CWWIM5014E LDAP entity type PersonAccount is not found.]
  [wplc-delete-federated-ldap-entitytype]
  com.ibm.websphere.wim.exception.WIMConfigurationException:
  CWWIM5014E LDAP entity type PersonAccount is not found
  
  If the realm name was not changed before calling
  wp-update-standalone-ldap, following messages can be found in
  ConfigTrace.log
  [wplc-create-realm] Realm <name> already exists in the WIM
  Repository System. Continuing with next task.
  and
  [wplc-cleanup-repositories] Repository <repID> not deleted
  because a base entry exists in the default realm.
  and
  [wplc-create-federated-ldap-repository] Repository <repID>
  already exists in the WIM Repository System. Continuing with
  next task.
  
  As a result, some LDAP attributes will not be changed after
  calling wp-update-standalone-ldap.
