How to get rid of a policy reference

Hi Everybody,

due to Bug 47377 we’re unable to get rid of a policy reference in umc. We’d like to introduce an additional dhcp service in our environment. Unfortunatley some dhcp properties have been defined in a policy that references the root object of our domain.

Is there a workaround to withdraw this reference from the root object?

Cheers
Sebastian

Hey,

you can write an LDIF file that contains the removal and apply it ldapmodify. First look at your current LDAP root:

univention-ldapsearch -o ldif-wrap=no -s base

Next create the LDIF file (adjust the base DN and the policy link’s DN, of course):

dn: dc=mbu-test,dc=intranet
changetype: modify
delete: univentionPolicyReference
univentionPolicyReference: cn=…,cn=policies,dc=mbu-test,dc=intranet

Then apply it:

ldapmodify -f your-ldif-file.ldif -D cn=admin,$(ucr get ldap/base) -y /etc/ldap.secret

The bug you referenced only comes into play when you use the UMC or the UDM for the modification as those tools assume different object classes.
