<h4 id="rzahyindexrules">Indexing rules</h4>
|
|
<p>Index rules attached to attributes make it possible to retrieve information
|
|
faster. If only the attribute is given, no indexes are maintained. Directory
|
|
Server provides the following indexing rules:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Equality</li>
|
|
<li>Ordering</li>
|
|
<li>Approximate</li>
|
|
<li>Substring</li>
|
|
<li>Reverse</li></ul>
|

|
|
<h5 id="wq27">Indexing rules specifications for attributes</h5>
|
|
<p>Specifying an indexing rule for an attribute controls the creation and
|
|
maintenance of special indexes on the attribute values. This greatly improves
|
|
the response time to searches with filters which include those attributes.
|
|
The five possible types of indexing rules are related to the operations applied
|
|
in the search filter.</p>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt class="bold">Equality</dt>
|
|
<dd> Applies to the following search operations:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>equalityMatch '='</li></ul>For example:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">"cn = John Doe"
|
|
</pre>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt class="bold">Ordering</dt>
|
|
<dd>Applies to the following search operation:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>greaterOrEqual '>='</li>
|
|
<li>lessOrEqual '<='</li></ul>For example:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">"sn >= Doe"</pre>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt class="bold">Approximate </dt>
|
|
<dd>Applies to the following search operation:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>approxMatch '~='</li></ul>For example:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">"sn ~= doe"</pre>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt class="bold">Substring</dt>
|
|
<dd>Applies to the search operation using the substring syntax:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>substring '*'</li></ul>For example:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">"sn = McC*"
|
|
"cn = J*Doe"</pre>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt class="bold">Reverse</dt>
|
|
<dd>Applies to the following search operation:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>'*' substring</li></ul>For example:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">"sn = *baugh"</pre>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
</dl><p class="indatacontent">At a minimum, it is recommended that you specify equal indexing on any
|
|
attributes that are to be used in search filters.</p>
