openLDAP with Aix
hello

I have a P570 with 3 partitions.
These partitions are available, since 1 year. So there are a lot of users, files, etc, on these partition
I must now install an openldap with Debian to manage all these users.
But several pb:
on LDAP, we are 1 iud for user and one home directory, 1 gid for group. And these uniq setting is the same for all partitions.....
And actually, i have a user X with the id 12 on partition 1, id 54 on partition 2 and ID 321 on partition 3, with home directory different on each partition !!!!!!! you understand the problem !!!!!!!
I can't destroy all to recreate with openldap, because i have 800 users on each partitions, and 6 To of files !!!!!
If i must modify permission and group of all files for all new user ID, it is a very dangerous and big work !!!!!!
perhaps there is a tool for ldap to make the interface between the openldap and these different partition, but i don't know........
so if you have a solution.......Smilie !
thank you

gptboot

GPTBOOT(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						GPTBOOT(8)

NAME

     gptboot -- GPT bootcode for UFS on BIOS-based computers

DESCRIPTION

     gptboot is used on BIOS-based computers to boot from a UFS partition on a GPT-partitioned disk.  gptboot is installed in a freebsd-boot par-
     tition with gpart(8).

IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

     The GPT standard allows a variable number of partitions, but gptboot only boots from tables with 128 partitions or less.

PARTITION ATTRIBUTES

     gptboot checks and manages several attributes of GPT UFS partitions.

     bootme	 Attempt to boot from this partition.  If more than one partition has the bootme attribute set, gptboot will attempt to boot each
		 one until successful.

     bootonce	 Attempt to boot from this partition only one time.  Setting this attribute with gpart(8) automatically also sets the bootme
		 attribute.  Multiple partitions may have the bootonce and bootme attributes set.

     bootfailed  The bootfailed attribute marks partitions that had the bootonce attribute set, but failed to boot.  This attribute is managed by
		 the system.  See BOOTING and POST-BOOT ACTIONS below for details.

USAGE

     For normal usage, the user does not have to set or manage any of the partition attributes.  gptboot will boot from the first UFS partition
     found.

     The bootonce attribute can be used for testing an upgraded operating system on an already-working computer.  The existing system partition is
     left untouched, and the new version of the operating system to be tested is installed on another partition.  The bootonce attribute is set on
     that new test partition.  The next boot is attempted from the test partition.  Success or failure will be shown in the system log files.
     After a successful boot of the test partition, a user script can check the logs and change the bootme attributes so the test partition
     becomes the new system partition.	Because the bootonce attribute is cleared after an attempted boot, a failed boot will not leave the system
     attempting to boot from a partition that will never succeed.  Instead, the system will boot from the older, known-working operating system
     that has not been modified.  If the bootme attribute is set on any partitions, booting will be attempted from them first.	If no partitions
     with bootme attributes are found, booting will be attempted from the first UFS partition found.

BOOTING

     gptboot first reads the partition table.  All freebsd-ufs partitions with only the bootonce attribute set, indicating a failed boot, are set
     to bootfailed.  gptboot then scans through all of the freebsd-ufs partitions.  Boot behavior depends on the combination of bootme and
     bootonce attributes set on those partitions.

     bootonce + bootme	    Highest priority: booting is attempted from each of the freebsd-ufs partitions with both of these attributes.  On each
			    partition, the bootme attribute is removed and the boot attempted.

     bootme		    Middle priority: booting is attempted from each of the freebsd-ufs partitions with the bootme attribute.

     If neither bootonce nor bootme attributes are found on any partitions, booting is attempted from the first freebsd-ufs partition on the disk.

POST-BOOT ACTIONS
     The startup script /etc/rc.d/gptboot checks the attributes of freebsd-ufs partitions on all GPT disks.  Partitions with the bootfailed
     attribute generate a ``boot from X failed'' system log message.  Partitions with only the bootonce attribute, indicating a partition that
     successfully booted, generate a ``boot from X succeeded'' system log message.  The bootfailed attributes are cleared from all the partitions.
     The bootonce attribute is cleared from the partition that successfully booted.  There is normally only one of these.

FILES

     /boot/gptboot  bootcode binary
     /boot.config   parameters for the boot blocks (optional)

EXAMPLES

     gptboot is installed in a freebsd-boot partition, usually the first partition on the disk.  A ``protective MBR'' (see gpart(8)) is typically
     installed in combination with gptboot.

     Install gptboot on the ada0 drive:

	   gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptboot -i 1 ada0

     gptboot can also be installed without the PMBR:

	   gpart bootcode -p /boot/gptboot -i 1 ada0

     Set the bootme attribute for partition 2:

	   gpart set -a bootme -i 2 ada0

     Set the bootonce attribute for partition 2, automatically also setting the bootme attribute:

	   gpart set -a bootonce -i 2 ada0

SEE ALSO

     boot.config(5), rc.conf(5), boot(8), gpart(8)

HISTORY

     gptboot appeared in FreeBSD 7.1.
