Abstract

This document describes the LDAP/X.500 Change Sequence Number 'CSN'
  syntax and matching rules and associated attributes. CSNs are used
  to impose a total ordering upon the sequence of updates applied
  to a directory.

Chu               draft-chu-ldap-csn-00              [Page 1]

INTERNET-DRAFT               LDAP CSN                    1 December 2004

1. Background and Intended Use

In X.500 Directory Services [X.501], updates to a directory may need
  to be distributed to multiple servers. The 'modifyTimeStamp' is already
  defined for recording the time of an update, but it may be inadequate in
  an environment where multiple servers with loosely synchronized clocks
  are interoperating.

This document describes the 'CSN' syntax which augments a timestamp with
  additional information to assist in coordinating updates among multiple
  directory servers. This document describes the 'entryCSN' operational
  attribute which carries the CSN of the last update applied to an entry
  and also the 'contextCSN' operational attribute which carries the
  greatest CSN of all updates applied to a directory context. Directory
  clients and servers may use these attributes to assist in synchronizing
  shadowed copies of directory information.

This document describes the 'csnMatch' and 'csnOrderingMatch' matching
  rules corresponding to the 'CSN' syntax.

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
  "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
  document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119].

Schema definitions are provided using LDAP description formats
  [RFC2252].  Definitions provided here are formatted (line wrapped) for
  readability.

2. CSN Schema Elements

2.1 CSN Syntax

Values in this syntax are encoded according to the following BNF:

CSN = timestamp '#' operation-counter '#' replica-id

timestamp = <generalizedTimeString as specified in 6.14 of [RFC2252]>

operation-counter = 6hex-digit

replica-id = 2hex-digit

The timestamp SHALL use GMT and SHALL NOT include fractional seconds.

The operation-counter is set to zero at the start of each second, and
  incremented by one for each update operation that occurs within that
  second.

The replica-id is an identifier that represents a specific Replica in
  a collection of cooperating servers.

The following is a LDAP syntax description [RFC2252] suitable for
  publication in the subschema.

( IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.1 DESC 'CSN' )

INTERNET-DRAFT               LDAP CSN                    1 December 2004

2.2 'csnMatch' Matching Rule

The 'csnMatch' matching rule compares an asserted CSN with a stored
  CSN for equality.  Its semantics are same as the octetStringMatch
  [X.520][RFC2252] matching rule.

The following is a LDAP matching rule description [RFC2252] suitable
  for publication in the subschema.

( IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.2 NAME 'csnMatch'
          SYNTAX IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.1 )

2.3 'csnOrderingMatch' Matching Rule

The 'csnOrderingMatch' matching rule compares an asserted CSN
  with a stored CSN for ordering.  Its semantics are the same as the
  octetStringOrderingMatch [X.520][RFC2252] matching rule.

The following is a LDAP matching rule description [RFC2252] suitable
  for publication in the subschema.

( IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.3 NAME 'csnOrderingMatch'
          SYNTAX IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.1 )

2.4. 'entryCSN' attribute

The 'entryCSN' operational attribute provides the CSN of the last
  update applied to the entry.

The following is a LDAP attribute type description [RFC2252] suitable
  for publication in the subschema.

( IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.4 NAME 'entryCSN'
          DESC 'CSN of the entry content'
          EQUALITY csnMatch
          ORDERING csnOrderingMatch

Chu               draft-chu-ldap-csn-00              [Page 3]

INTERNET-DRAFT               LDAP CSN                    1 December 2004

SYNTAX IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.1
          SINGLE-VALUE
          NO-USER-MODIFICATION
          USAGE directoryOperation )

Servers SHALL assign a CSN to each entry upon its addition to the
  directory  and provide the entry's CSN as the value of the
  'entryCSN' operational attribute.  The entryCSN attribute SHOULD be
  updated upon every update of the entry.

2.5. 'contextCSN' attribute

The 'contextCSN' operational attribute provides the greatest CSN of
  all the updates applied to a context.

The following is a LDAP attribute type description [RFC2252] suitable
  for publication in the subschema.

( IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.5 NAME 'contextCSN'
         DESC 'the largest committed CSN of a context'
         EQUALITY csnMatch
         ORDERING csnOrderingMatch
         SYNTAX IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.1
         SINGLE-VALUE
         NO-USER-MODIFICATION
         USAGE directoryOperation )

Servers SHALL record the greatest CSN of all updates applied to a
  context in the root entry of the context.

3. Security Considerations
