Question
Can I Extend My LDAP Schema and use the additional attributes in UMC?
Answer
Yes, this is possible.
Step 1
You have to add the schema to OpenLDAP and make sure they get replicated to all UCS servers across the domain. This is documented in a blog article (see chapter “Schema extension using the UDM”).
Step 2 (optional, in case you need to manage the new attributes in UMC)
Create a mapping between the UMC attributes and the additional schema attributes. This has to be done with the “udm” command and is documented here
Note: It is important to set the correct values for IdMapping and objectClass according to your new schema.
