Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2013:1653 normal SHIPPED_LIVE 389-ds-base bug fix update 2013-11-20 21:53:19 UTC

Description Nathan Kinder 2012-06-08 21:11:31 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/367

If you try and setup chaining using the root DN, the callback returns -2, which is incorrectly seen as a "disk full" error and the DS is automatically shutdown.
Comment 1 RHEL Product and Program Management 2012-07-10 06:18:09 UTC 
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 2 RHEL Product and Program Management 2012-07-10 23:00:11 UTC 
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.
Comment 4 Sankar Ramalingam 2013-01-24 12:03:41 UTC 
Request you to please add verification steps.
Comment 5 mreynolds 2013-01-24 14:02:37 UTC 
Setup chaining, and set the root dn (cn=directory manager" as the bind dn:

https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Configuring_Directory_Databases-Creating_and_Maintaining_Database_Links.html

After setting up chaining/database link, make sure the DS is still running.
