The Schema Check on Modify attribute specifies whether the DSA checks modifications for conformance with the schema. Syntax: SET DSA SCHEMA CHECK ON MODIFY <TRUE/FALSE> If you do not want the DSA to use the schema to ensure that modifications are valid, set this attribute to FALSE. Note that if directory modifications are not checked against the schema, you can easily corrupt your directory information. It is not advisable to set this attribute to FALSE unless you are sure that all requests for modification will be valid. One reason to set this attribute to FALSE temporarily might be because you want to use a script file to execute a large number of commands which you are sure are all valid. The DSA can process such a file more quickly, but you must be confident that the file contains no invalid commands. For example, if the file contains a request to add an attribute to an entry for which it is not allowed, then you will have created an invalid entry.
