Enabling or disabling the change log for a directory server instance

The change log database is used to record changes to the schema or directory entries in the typical LDAP entry structure that can be retrieved through the LDAP API. The change log records all update operations: add, delete, modify, and modrdn. The change log enables a Tivoli Directory Server client application to retrieve a set of changes that have been made to a Tivoli Directory Server database. The client might then update its own replicated or cached copy of the data.

You can use the Configuration Tool or the command line to enable or disable the change log.

1. The server must be stopped before you enable or disable the change log.
2. This option is not available if you are configuring a proxy server or if you have not installed the full directory server on the computer.
