Contents
Abstract

Data Organisation
The following chapters explain the data organisation of the stoney cloud OpenLDAP directory, in this case we looking at the maintenance service.
Maintenance
The following LDIF shows the maintenance entry of the whole OpenLDAP directory tree for the stoney cloud:
dn: ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: maintenance description: The sub tree for the maintenance (configuration management) service.
Maintenance Configuration
The sub tree for the configuration of the maintenance service:
dn: ou=configuration,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: configuration description: The sub tree for the configuration of the maintenance service.
Maintenance Configuration Reseller
The sub tree for the reseller specific maintenance service settings:
dn: ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: reseller description: The sub tree for the reseller specific maintenance service settings.
The sub tree for the specific maintenance service settings for the reseller Reseller Ltd. with the uid 4000000.
dn: uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org objectclass: top objectclass: sstReseller objectclass: sstServiceConfigurationObjectClass uid: 4000000 o: Reseller Ltd. description: The sub tree for the specific maintenance service settings for the reseller Reseller Ltd. with the uid 4000000. sstIsActive: TRUE sstIsDefault: TRUE sstBelongsToResellerUID: 4000000
The following table describes the different attributes:
Attribute | |
|
|
|
Description |
uid | |
|
|
|
A unique integer value with 7 digits or more. For example: 4000000 .
|
o | |
|
|
|
The company name, for example: Reseller Ltd. .
|
description | |
|
|
|
The description of the leaf. |
sstIsActive | |
|
|
|
Is the entry active? Either TRUE (yes) or FALSE (no).
|
sstIsDefault | |
|
|
|
Contains the leaf a default entry? Either TRUE (yes) or FALSE (no). If sstIsDefault is set to TRUE , this entry acts as a fall back configuration. In other words: If a reseller doesn't have his own maintenance service configuration, then this on will be used.
|
sstBelongsToResellerUID | |
|
|
|
Stores the reseller UID the leaf belongs to. A unique value with 7 digits or more. For example: 4000000 .

Legend:
- x: Mandatory in all cases.
Maintenance Configuration Reseller Notification Settings
The sub tree stores the notification information for the maintenance service for the reseller Reseller Ltd. with the uid 4000000. This information is used as a fallback. The lookup is as follows:
- Unit:
uid=4000003,ou=units,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Customer:
ou=notifications,uid=4000001,ou=customers,ou=configuration,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Reseller:
ou=notifications,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Default Reseller:
ou=notifications,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=maintenance,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
.
The idea is, that even if somebody forgot to define something, no maintenance window will be lost or forgotten.
