{toc:minLevel=2|maxLevel=2}

h2. About Delegated Administrator 6.4

Delegated Administrator 6.4 enables you to provision organizations (domains), users, groups, and resources in an LDAP directory used by Communications Suite applications such as Messaging Server, Calendar Server, and Instant Messaging.

The Delegated Administrator has two user interfaces:
* A utility (a set of command-line tools) invoked with the {{commadmin}} command.
* A console (a graphical user interface) accessible through a Web browser.

Online help in the Delegated Administrator console describes how administrators can use the GUI to provision users in an LDAP directory.

With Delegated Administrator 6.4, you can provision users in an LDAP Schema 2 directory only. To provision Messaging Server users in an LDAP Schema 1 directory, you must use iPlanet Delegated Administrator, a deprecated tool.

For information about configuring and managing Delegated Administrator, see the [Sun Java System Delegated Administrator 6.4 Administration Guide|CommSuite:Delegated Administrator Administration Guide]. For a description of the Delegated Administrator {{commadmin}} command-line tools, see [CommSuite:Delegated Administrator Utility (commadmin) Reference].

h2. What's New in This Release of Delegated Administrator

See the [Communications Suite 6 What's New|Communications Suite 6 Update 1 What's New#What's New in Delegated Administrator 6.4] document.

h2. Deprecated and Removed Features for Delegated Administrator 6.4

[Top|#top]
h3. {anchor:GFAOF} Deprecated Platforms: Version 3 of Red Hat Linux (effective in Communications Suite 6)

h2. Delegated Administrator Installation Notes

For a detailed steps required to install and configure Delegated Administrator, see “Chapter 2: Planning for Installation and Configuration” in the [Sun Java System Delegated Administrator 6.4 Administration Guide|CommSuite:Delegated Administrator Administration Guide].

[Top|#top]
h3. {anchor:FXJUE} ACI Consolidation
For large-scale installations with Access Manager, Messaging Server, and an LDAP Schema 2 directory, you might want to consolidate the Access Control Instructions (ACIs) in your directory.\\
\\When you install Access Manager with Messaging Server, a large number of ACIs initially are installed in the directory. Many default ACIs are not needed or used by Messaging Server. You can improve the performance of Directory Server and, consequently, of Messaging Server look-ups, by consolidating and reducing the number of default ACIs in the directory.

For information about how to consolidate and discard unused ACIs, see [Consolidating ACIs for Directory Server Performance|CommSuite:Consolidating ACIs for Directory Server Performance].

h2. Delegated Administrator Documentation Updates

In this release of Delegated Administrator, ??Sun Java System Delegated Administrator Administration Guide?? describes how to enforce unique values for mail attributes when running Directory Server 5._x_. This task appears as a “Post-Configuration Task” after you run the Delegated Administrator configuration program.\\
\\If you are running Directory Server 6._x_, you must follow the procedure described here to enforce unique mail attribute values:
h6. {anchor:GFIHD} To enforce the uniqueness of mail attributes when running Directory Server 6._x_
Messaging Server uses the following mail attributes to identify a user's email address and alternate email addresses:
* {{mail}}
* {{mailAlternateAddress}}
* {{mailEquivalentAddress}}

Each user's mail attributes should be unique across the directory.
# Install the following Directory Server plug-in: 6.1_PR_6573440.\\
\\To install the plug-in, follow the instructions in the plug-in {{README}} file.\\
\\The plug-in is available with Directory Server 6._x_ patches on SunSolve.\\
\\This plug-in provides a hotfix patch to Directory Server to enforce mail attribute uniqueness. Although the plug-in is labeled “6.1”, it applies to other Directory Server 6._x_ releases such as Directory Server 6.0.
# Create the plug-in for Delegated Administrator by using the Directory Server configuration utility, {{dsconf}}.\\
\\For example:
{code}
dsconf create-plugin -h host -p port
-H /opt/SUNWdsee/ds6/lib/uid-plugin.so -F NSUniqueAttrSet_Init
-Y preoperation -G attributeset=mail,mailalternateaddress,mailequivalentaddress
-G "ugldapbasedn" "Uniqueness in Attrbute Set"
{code}
where\\
\\ _host_ and _port_ are the host name and port number of the machine where Directory Server is installed\\
\\ {{/opt/SUNWdsee/ds6/lib/uid-plugin.so}} is an example of the library path where {{uid-plugin.so}} is located on Solaris. (For Linux platforms, use the appropriate Linux library path.)\\
\\ _ugldapbasedn_ is your root suffix. Uniqueness checking is performed on all entries underneath this suffix.
# Enable the plug-in for Delegated Administrator.\\
\\For example:
{code}
dsconf enable-plugin -h host -p port "Uniqueness
in Attribute Set"
{code}
For more information about using the {{dsconf}} utility to enforce attribute value uniqueness, see the following chapter in the _Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.3 Administration Guide_: [*Directory Server Attribute Value Uniqueness*|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2763/bcayb?l=en&q=attribute+value+uniqueness&a=view].
# Restart Directory Server.

h2. Delegated Administrator Compatibility Issues

The following table lists the known incompatibilities between Communications Suite Delegated Administrator 6.4 and earlier versions.
||Incompatibility||Impact||Comments||
|Access Manager in Realm Mode (version 7.x style)\\
Note: Access Manager has two install types: Realm Mode (version 7.x style) and Legacy Mode (version 6.x style). Legacy Mode is the default.|At installation, you must choose Legacy Mode as the install type on the following panel:\\
\\ {{Access Manager: Administration (1 of 6)}}|If the Realm Mode install type of Access Manager is installed, you will not be able to run Delegated Administrator.|
|Directory Server releases 5.2.4 and earlier|The Directory Server feature that enforces unique values for mail attributes is not available with versions earlier than 5.2.4.|Solution: Upgrade to Directory Server 5.2.5 or later.\\
\\You also can install Directory Server 5.2.4, but you must apply patch 5.2_Patch_4_6313027. For detailed instructions, see [Enforce Unique Values for Mail Attributes|Delegated Administrator 6.4 Initial Configuration#gcfeh]|

*After Delegated Administrator is upgraded with {{commpkg upgrade}}, the post-upgrade script always displays a success message, even when the upgrade failed.*\\

*You cannot upgrade Delegated Administrator from version 2004Q2 to version 6.4 (the current release) when Access Manager is deployed to an Application Server node agent.*\\
\\This issue occurs when Delegated Administrator is deployed to Application Server and you upgrade Application Server from version 7 to version 8.x. The {{asupgrade}} utility migrates the Application Server 7 {{server1}} instance into the Application Server 8.x {{server1}} target running under a nodeagent. However, {{asupgrade}} changes the value of the virtual server from {{server1}} in Application Server 7 to {{server}} in Application Server 8.x.\\
\\ *Workaround:*\\
\\When you run the Delegated Administrator configuration program, {{config-commda}} , in the Application Server Preferences panel, specify these values for the target and virtual server:
* Target: {{server1}}
* Virtual Server: {{server}}

*Upgrading to Access Manager 7.0 without upgrading Delegated Administrator to version 6.4 (the current release) will cause user creation to fail.*
{info:title=Note}
This issue occurs only if you are currently running Delegated Administrator 6 2005Q1 (Java ES Release 3) or earlier. If you have installed Delegated Administrator version 6 2005Q4 (Java ES Release 4) or have already upgraded Delegated Administrator to version 6.4, this issue does not occur.
{info}
When you upgrade to Java Enterprise System Release 5, if you upgrade Access Manager from version 6.x to 7.0 but do not upgrade Delegated Administrator to version 6.4, user creation with mail or calendar service will fail.\\
\\The recommended way to solve this issue is to upgrade Delegated Administrator to version 6.4. If you have a compelling reason not to upgrade Delegated Administrator, take the steps described in the following workaround.\\
\\ *Workaround:*
# Update the {{UserCalendarService.xml}} file, located by default in the following directory:
{code}
/opt/SUNWcomm/lib/services/UserCalendarService.xml
{code}
In the {{UserCalendarService.xml}} file, mark the {{mail}} , {{icssubscribed}}, and {{icsfirstday}} attributes as optional instead of required.
# In Access Manager, remove the existing xml file by running the {{amadmin}} command, as in the following example:
{code}
amadmin -u amadmin -w netscape -r UserCalendarService
{code}
# In Access Manager, add the updated xml file, as in the following example:
{code}
amadmin -u amadmin -w netscape
-s /opt/SUNWcomm/lib/services/UserCalendarService.xml
{code}
# Restart the Web container.

*The Delegated Administrator configuration program allows you to enter invalid values in the Domain Separator field.*\\
\\In the configuration program, {{config-commda}}, you can enter invalid characters such as {{^}} in the Domain Separator field. You cannot log into the Delegated Administrator console using a login ID with the invalid domain-separator character.\\
\\ *Workaround:* Edit the value of the {{commadminserver.domainseparator}} property in the {{daconfig.properties}} file, located in the following default path:
{code}
/var/opt/SUNWcomm/da/WEB-INF/classes/
com/sun/comm/da/resources/daconfig.properties
{code}
Use a valid value such as {{@}}, {{-}}, or {{_}}.\\
\\Redeploy the edited {{daconfig.properties}} file to the Web container used by the Delegated Administrator console.\\
\\Before the change can take effect, you must run the script that deploys the customized {{daconfig.properties}} file to your Web container.\\
\\For instructions on how to deploy a customized properties file to a particular Web container, see [To Deploy a Customized Configuration File in ??Delegated Administrator 6.4 Administration Guide??|CommSuite:Customizing Delegated Administrator#Deploying a Customized Configuration File].

*In the Delegated Administrator console, the Calendar service Advanced Rights interface is missing the calendar group double-booking option.*\\
\\When the group calendar account functionality was added in Calendar Server 6.3, a new bit was added to the {{icsAllowRights}} LDAP attribute:\\
{noformat}
bit 15 : allowGroupDoubleBook : "Double booking of group calendars"
{noformat}\\
The Delegated Administrator console is missing a field to "Allow double booking for new group calendars" by setting bit 15 of the {{icsAllowedRights}} attribute. (The Advanced Rights fields are in the Calendar Service section of the Organization Properties page in the Delegated Administrator console.) \\

*Local Organization Administrators and Service Provider Administrators can change the disk space quota attribute of their domains when the service package assigned to the domains restricts the disk space quota.*\\
\\An Organization Administrator can use the Delegated Administrator console to change the value of the *Disk Space Quota* option for the domain, overriding the service package restrictions.\\
\\ *Workaround:* Edit the {{Security.properties}} file, as follows:\\
\\
1. To prohibit an organization administrator from editing the disk space quota field, add the following line to the {{Security.properties}} file: \\
\\
{{OrganizationAdminRole.UserProperties.MailQuotaValue=NONEDITABLE}} \\
\\
For a Service Provider Administrator, add the following line: \\
\\
{{ProviderAdminRole.UserProperties.MailQuotaValue=NONEDITABLE}} \\
\\
Be sure to update the {{Security.properties}} file in the Delegated Administrator configuration directory. For example: \\
\\
{{/var/opt/sun/com/da/WEB-INF/classes/com/sun/comm/da/resources/Security.properties}} \\
\\
*Note:* If you are running Communications Suite 5 version of Delegated Administrator 6.4, the default path on Solaris would be:\\
\\
{{/var/opt/SUNWcomm/da/WEB-INF/classes/com/sun/comm/da/resources/Security.properties}} \\
\\
2. You also must deploy the updated {{Security.properties}} file to the web container's configuration directory. For example, if you have deployed Delegated Administrator to Web Server 7.x, the default path would be:\\
\\
{noformat}
/var/opt/SUNWwbsvr7/<https-Host_name>/web-app/<Host_name> \
/da/WEB-INF/classes/com/sun/comm/da/resources/Security.properties
{noformat}\\
