Managing DS Backends

Overview

PKI database can either be stored in a shared DS backend or separate DS backends for each subsystems.

With shared DS backend, a backend (e.g. pki) can be created to store the top level PKI LDAP entry (e.g. dc=pki,dc=example,dc=com). Then all subsystems can be created underneath this entry using the same backend.

With separate DS backends, separate backends (e.g. ca) can be created for each subsystem LDAP tree (e.g. dc=ca,dc=pki,dc=example,d=com). Currently there is no requirement for a top level LDAP entry (i.e. dc=pki,dc=example,d=com), but in the future it may be needed.
