Add Attribute to Custom Service Schema

Use this page to add an attribute to the schema for the service type.

Attribute name
Type the name of the schema attribute, or click Search to locate an existing attribute from the schema.

When you specify a label name for this attribute in the CustomLabels.properties file, the label name must be specified in lowercase letters. The value of the label does not need to be lowercase, but the label name must be lowercase. For example, to specify an attribute name of "MyAttribute," in the CustomLabels.properties file, type: myattribute="MyAttribute". If the label name does not contain all lowercase letters, the value of the label might not be displayed correctly in the user interface.

Search
Finds an existing attribute from the schema.
OID
Indicates the value of an object identifier (OID).
Required
Identifies whether this attribute is a required attribute.
Multi-Valued
Identifies whether the value of the attribute can contain multiple values.
Syntax
Identifies the type of value that the attribute can contain, such as binary or integer.

When there are two or more LDAP classes that refer to the same attribute definition, the syntax cannot be changed if the syntax is binary.
