|

<p>Use either of the following methods to create a new attribute. The Web

administration tool is the preferred method.</p>

<p><span class="bold">Web administration</span></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If you have not done so already, expand <span class="bold">Schema

management</span> in the navigation area, then click <span class="bold">Manage attributes</span>. To create a new attribute:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
||
|
|
<li>Click <span class="bold">Add</span>.

|

<div class="notetitle" id="wq315">Note:</div>
|

<div class="notebody">You can also access this panel by expanding <span class="bold">Schema management</span> in the navigation area, then click <span class="bold">Add an attribute</span>.</div></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Enter the <span class="bold">Attribute name</span>, for
|
||
|
|
example, <span class="bold">tempId</span>. This is a required field
|
||
|
|
and must begin with an alphabetical character.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Enter a <span class="bold">Description</span> of the attribute,
|
||
|
|
for example, <span class="bold">The ID number assigned to a temporary
|
||
|
|
employee</span>.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Enter the <span class="bold">OID</span> for the attribute. This
|
||
|
|
is a required field. See <a href="rzahyoid.htm#rzahyoid">Object identifier (OID)</a>. If you do not have an OID,
|
||
|
|
you can use the attribute name appended with -oid. For example, if the attribute
|
||
|
|
name is <span class="bold">tempID</span>, then the default OID is <span class="bold">tempID-oid</span>. You can change the value of this field.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Select a <span class="bold">Superior attribute</span> from
|
||
|
|
the drop-down list. The superior attribute determines the attribute from which
|
||
|
|
properties are inherited.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Select a <span class="bold">Syntax</span> from the drop-down list.
|
||
|
|
See <a href="rzahysyntax.htm#rzahysyntax">Attribute syntax</a> for additional information about syntax.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Enter an <span class="bold">Attribute length</span> that
|
||

specifies the maximum length of this attribute. The length is expressed as
|

|
the number of bytes.</li>
|

|
|
<li>Select the <span class="bold">Allow multiple values</span> checkbox to enable the attribute to have multiple values.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Select a matching rule from the each of the drop-down menus for equality,
|
||
|
|
ordering, and substring matching rules. See the <a href="rzahymatchrules.htm#rzahymatchrules">Matching rules</a> for
|
||
|
|
a complete listing of matching rules.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Click the <span class="bold">IBM extensions</span> tab
|
||
|
|
to specify additional extensions for the attribute, or click <span class="bold">OK</span> to add the new attribute or click <span class="bold">Cancel</span> to return to <span class="bold">Manage attributes</span> without
|
||
|
|
making any changes.</li>

<li>At the <span class="bold">IBM extensions</span> tab:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Change the <span class="bold">DB2 table name </span>. The server generates
|
||
|
|
the DB2 table name if this field is left blank. If you enter a DB2 table name,
|
||
|
|
you must also enter a DB2 column name.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Change the <span class="bold">DB2 column name</span>. The server generates
|
||
|
|
the DB2 column name if this field is left blank. If you enter a DB2 column
|
||
|
|
name, you must also enter a DB2 table name.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Set the <span class="bold">Security class</span> by selecting <span class="bold">normal</span>, <span class="bold">sensitive</span>,
|
||
|
|
or <span class="bold">critical</span> from the drop-down list.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Set the <span class="bold">Indexing rules</span> by selecting one or more
|
||
|
|
indexing rules. See <a href="rzahyindexrules.htm#rzahyindexrules">Indexing rules</a> for additional information
|

about indexing rules.

<p><span class="bold">Command line</span></p>
|

|
<p>The following example adds an attribute type definition for an attribute
|
||
|
|
called "myAttribute", with Directory String syntax (see <a href="rzahysyntax.htm#rzahysyntax">Attribute syntax</a>)
|
||
|
|
and Case Ignore Equality matching (see <a href="rzahymatchrules.htm#rzahymatchrules">Matching rules</a>). The
|
||
|
|
IBM-specific part of the definition says that the attribute data is stored
|
||
|
|
in a column named "myAttrColumn" in a table called "myAttrTable". If these
|
||
|
|
names were not specified, both the column and table name would have defaulted
|
||
|
|
to "myAttribute". The attribute is assigned to the "normal" access class,
|
||
|
|
and values have a maximum length of 200 bytes.</p>
