Abstract for IBM® Tivoli® Directory Server Messages and Codes for z/OS

Purpose of this information

This document supports z/OS® (5650-ZOS) and explains the LDAP server. The LDAP server supports Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and runs as a stand-alone daemon. It is based on a client/server model that provides client access to an LDAP server. The LDAP server provides an easy way to maintain directory information in a central location for storage, updating, retrieval, and exchange.

This document includes the messages and reason codes produced by the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server.

Intended audience

This document is intended for anyone who uses the LDAP server and wants to know what caused a message to be displayed and what corrective action, if any, needs to be taken.
