Each Subordinate Reference entity has two characteristic attributes: - Access Point - Copy Access Point You can use the ADD, SET, SHOW and REMOVE directives on both these attributes. Syntax: ADD DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> <attr> {<value>,...} REMOVE DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> <attr> {<value>,...} SET DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> <attr> {<value>,...} SHOW DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> <attr> where <attr> is the characteristic attribute name and <value> is the value. The Access Point attribute is single-valued. You can display the value of both attributes in one SHOW directive by separating the attributes with a comma. For example: SHOW DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> <attribute1>, <attribute2> Similarly, you can achieve the same result by using the ALL CHARACTERISTICS qualifier with the SHOW directive. For example: SHOW DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> ALL CHARACTERISTICS
1 – Access Point
This specifies the Access Point of the DSA which holds the master copy of a directory entry subordinate to the current entry. There is no default value. Syntax: ADD DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> ACCESS POINT {<value>,...} REMOVE DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> ACCESS POINT {<value>,...} SET DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> ACCESS POINT {<value>,...} SHOW DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> ACCESS POINT where <value> is the access point of the DSA and is specified as follows: {[ae title = "<distinguished name of DSA>", presentation address = '<presentation address>']} The AE Title and Presentation Address attributes are both mandatory. Note that you must specify the AE Title and Presentation Address in the order shown above. Specify all valid NSAPs for a DSA in an access point. This improves the network efficiency of the DSA, ensuring that if a connection to the relevant DSA already exists, it is always re-used. Refer to DSA Common_Datatypes for more information on how to specify an AE Title and a Presentation Address.
2 – Copy Access Point
This specifies the DSA which holds a copy of a directory entry subordinate to the current entry. There is no default value. Syntax: ADD DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> COPY ACCESS POINT {<value>,...} REMOVE DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> COPY ACCESS POINT {<value>,...} SET DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> COPY ACCESS POINT {<value>,...} SHOW DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name> COPY ACCESS POINT where <value> is the access point of a DSA to which the Subordinate Reference refers, and is specified as follows: [ae title = "<distinguished name of DSA>", presentation address = '<presentation address>'] The AE Title and the presentation address are both mandatory. Note that the order of the AE Title and presentation address must be the same as that shown above. Specify all valid NSAPs for a DSA in an access point. This improves the network efficiency of the DSA, ensuring that if a connection to the relevant DSA already exists, it is always re-used. Refer to DSA Common_Datatypes for more information on how to specify an AE Title and a Presentation Address.
