WebSphere Application Server security can be configured
to attempt failovers between multiple Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) hosts.
Before you begin
The multiple LDAP servers involved in the failover can be
replicas that are replicated from the same master LDAP server, or
they can be any LDAP host with the same schema. That is any LDAP host
that contains data that is imported from the same LDAP data interchange
format (LDIF) file.
Note: When WebSphere Application Server attempts
failovers between multiple Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
hosts, system properties are exchanged. WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1.0 manages the SSL
configuration and these system properties. You cannot expect
to set system properties yourself and expect the failover to succeed.
