What's New in OpenDJ Compared to the OpenDJ release, OpenDJ
provides the following new features.TODO
OpenDJ directory server now provides alternative backend types
for backends that use embedded databases for storage
(OPENDJ-1602).
Alternative backend types continue to provide
the same high-performance full LDAPv3 compliance
and the same ease of use as previous choices.
If you do choose to make the change to a new backend type,
note that you must import the data again into the new backend.
This is necessary because
you are effectively changing underlying storage implementations.
You can make the move for example by exporting LDIF from the old backend
and then importing the LDIF into the new backend,
or simply through OpenDJ replication
by initializing a server using the new backend from an existing replica.
The dsconfig command now supports
a option for reading subcommands from standard input
(OPENDJ-1840).
OpenDJ directory server now requires a privilege,
changelog-read to read and search entries
under cn=changelog
(OPENDJ-1351).
OpenDJ directory server now provides a mechanism
to reference password validators from subentry password policies
(OPENDJ-1295).
OpenDJ directory server has
an improved replication changelog implementation
(OPENDJ-1215).
The configuration refers to the previous implementation
as je because it uses Berkeley DB Java Edition,
and to the new implementation
as log because it uses log files.
When you install a replicated directory server,
the new implementation is selected by default.
After upgrading a replicated directory server,
you can use the new implementation
by changing the advanced replication server configuration property
replication-db-implementation
to log using the dsconfig command.
Debian and RPM packages now provide service management scripts so
that you can manage the server with the service, and
include documentation files under /usr/share/doc/opendj*
(OPENDJ-1068, OPENDJ-1114).OpenDJ REST LDAP gateway now supports SSL and StartTLS connections
to directory servers (OPENDJ-1033).
