Guidelines for interoperability between IBM Security Directory Server and z/OS IBM Security Directory Server

Edit online

You can use the information provided here to consider the points when setting up a mixed platform environment where an LDAP directory is being replicated between Security Directory Server on Linux®, Unix, or Windows platforms and z/OS® IBM® Security Directory Server.

This information also applies to migration of the schema and directory entries between these different platforms.
Note: Replication from a z/OS LDAP Server to a Distributed LDAP Server on a distributed platform depends on the following conditions:
  • The data stored or modified on the z/OS server and the operations used to update them are limited to the subset that is supported on both directory servers.
  • The schema definitions are equivalent between the two servers.
The Distributed platforms include AIX®, Windows, Solaris, and Linux. For optimal performance, it is better to use replication only between Distributed LDAP Server on Distributed platforms.
