1.2.1 Permissive Modify Control

You can extend the current LDAP modify operation by using this option. If you attempt to delete an attribute that does not exist or to add any value to an attribute that already exists, the operation goes through without displaying any error message.

For more information, see Configuring Permissive Modify Control in the NetIQ eDirectory 8.8 SP8 Administration Guide.

1.2.2 Generalized Time Support

The Generalized Time Support option allows you to display the time in the YYYYMMDDHHmmSS.0Z format.

Note that 0Z signifies support to fractional seconds as supported by Active Directory. Because eDirectory does not support fractional seconds display, this options displays 0 to avoid breaking the functionality in a co-existing environment.

For more information, see Configuring Generalized Time Support in the NetIQ eDirectory 8.8 SP8 Administration Guide.

1.2.3 Subtree Delete Control

This release supports subtree delete control that allows deleting any container object. Previously, only leaf objects could be deleted. However, subtree delete control does not support deleting partition containers.
