ApacheDS Logging Subsystem Proposal
Motivation
I have two ApacheDS instances, one for production and one for staging. I want to test every critical operation on the staging server before applying it to the production server. So I need a logging mechanism which will log any change inducing operation applied on the staging server.
Design
- Log format is LDIF.
- Log operations done on subtreeSpecifications selected DIT portions.
- Store configuration (like excluededAttributes, logFileName) in subentries.
- Add modification dates as comments in LDIFs so that we can do some Snapshot stuff.
