SLAPO-RETCODE(5) File Formats Manual SLAPO-RETCODE(5) NAME slapo-retcode - return code overlay to slapd SYNOPSIS /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf DESCRIPTION The retcode overlay to slapd(8) is useful to test the behavior of clients when server-generated erroneous and/or unusual responses occur, e.g. error codes, referrals, excessive response times and so on. The error responses are generated according to different strategies. In the first case, all operations targeted at a specific configurable subtree cause the object related to the request DN to be looked up and checked for return code data: a response code, plus an optional textual message, an optional configurable delay, an optional matched DN field, and, when the response code is "referral", a (list of) referral(s). Well-known response codes from standard track documents are provided in retcode.conf, which can be included after instantiating the overlay. In the second case, objects of classes inherited from the errAbsObject, like errObject or errAuxObject, when returned as intermediate responses of a search request, are changed into the response dictated by their content. A third mode causes objects to be looked up from the underlying data- base to discover if their class inherits from errABsObject; in that case, their content is used to compute the corresponding response. The behavior is disabled by using the manageDSAit control (RFC 3296); in that case, the resulting object, either present in the directory or dynamically generated by the overlay, or contained in the request, is handled as usual. The config directives that are specific to the retcode overlay must be prefixed by retcode-, to avoid conflicts with directives specific to the underlying database or to other stacked overlays. The following specific directives can be used to configure the retcode overlay: retcode-parent <DN> This directive defines the parent DN where dynamically generated entries reside. If not defined, the suffix of the database is used. retcode-item <RDN> <errCode> [op=<oplist>] [text=<message>] [ref=<referral>] [sleeptime=<sec>] [matched=<DN>] [unsolicited=<OID>[:<data>]] [flags=[pre|post-]disconnect[,...]] A dynamically generated entry, located below retcode-parent. The errCode is the number of the response code; it can be in any format supported by strtol(3). The optional oplist is a list of operations that cause response code generation; if absent, all operations are affected. The matched field is the matched DN that is returned along with the error, while the text field is an optional diagnostics message. The ref field is only allowed for the referral response code. The sleeptime field causes slapd(8) to sleep the specified number of seconds before proceeding with the operation. The unsolicited field can be used to cause the return of an RFC 4511 unsolicited response message; if OID is not "0", an extended response is generated, with the optional data appended. If flags contains disconnect, or pre-disconnect, slapd(8) disconnects abruptly, without notice; post-disconnect causes disconnection right after sending response as appropriate. retcode-indir Enables exploitation of in-directory stored errAbsObject. May result in a lot of unnecessary overhead. retcode-sleep [-]<n> Defines a sleep time in seconds that is spent before actually handling any operation. If negative, a random time between 0 and the absolute value of the argument is used. SCHEMA The retcode overlay utilizes the "return code" schema described herein. This schema is specifically designed for use with this overlay and is not intended to be used otherwise. It is also noted that the schema described here is a work in progress, and hence subject to change without notice. The schema is loaded automatically by the overlay. The schema includes a number of object classes and associated attribute types as described below.
