Refreshing an LDAP Server Configuration Object

Reinitialize the LDAP server. The command fails if the connection state of the LDAP server is not in an ACTIVE or READY state.

Prerequisites

Requires the MANAGE ANY LDAP SERVER system privilege.

Task

When refreshing an LDAP server, all connections to the LDAP server are closed and the option values on the LDAP server are reread from the ISYSLDAPSERVER system table. The values are then applied to all new connections to the LDAP server and all incoming user authentication requests to the SAP Sybase IQ server. Execution of the REFRESH command does not change the connection state of the LDAP server, nor does it change any existing connections from a client to the SAP Sybase IQ server.

To ensure that any changes are used when a user next authenticates, it is recommended that you refresh the LDAP server after making any changes to the TRUSTED_CERTIFICATES_FILE database option or to the contents of the file specified by the TRUSTED_CERTIFICATES_FILE database option.

To refresh the LDAP server, execute:

ALTER LDAP SERVER LDAP_server_name
WITH REFRESH
