.SH NAME
slapo-lastmod \- Last Modification overlay
.SH SYNOPSIS
ETCDIR/slapd.conf
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The 
.B lastmod
overlay creates a service entry rooted at the suffix of the database
it's stacked onto, which holds the DN, the modification type,
the modifiersName and the modifyTimestamp of the last write operation
performed on that database.
The lastmod overlay cannot be used when the "lastmod" feature
is disabled, i.e. "lastmod off" is used.
.P
All operations targeted at the DN of the lastmod entry are rejected,
except reads, i.e. searches with 
.B base
scope.
Regular operations are ignored, unless they result in writing; then,
in case of success, the lastmod entry is updated accordingly,
if possible.

.SH CONFIGURATION
These 
.B slapd.conf
configuration options apply to the lastmod overlay. They must appear
after the
.B overlay
directive.
.TP
.B lastmod-rdnvalue <RDN value>
Specify the value of the RDN used for the service entry.  By default
.I Lastmod
is used.
.TP
.B lastmod-enabled {yes|no}
Specify whether the overlay must be enabled or not at startup.
By default, the overlay is enabled; however, by changing the boolean
value of the attribute
.IR lastmodEnabled ,
one can affect the status of the overlay.
This is useful, for instance, to inhibit the overlay from keeping track
of large bulk loads or deletions.

.SH OBJECT CLASS
The 
.B lastmod
overlay depends on the
.B lastmod
objectClass.  The definition of that class is as follows:
.LP
.RS 4
( 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.666.3.13 "
    NAME 'lastmod'
    DESC 'OpenLDAP per-database last modification monitoring'

    MAY ( description $ seeAlso ) )

.SH ATTRIBUTES
.P
Each one of the sections below details the meaning and use of a particular
attribute of this
.B lastmod
objectClass.
Most of the attributes that are specific to the lastmod objectClass are
operational, since they can logically be altered only by the DSA.
The most notable exception is the
.I lastmodEnabled
attributeType, which can be altered via protocol to change the status
of the overlay.
.P

.B lastmodEnabled
.P
This attribute contains a boolean flag that determines the status
of the overlay.  It can be altered via protocol by issuing a modify
operation that replaces the value of the attribute.

.B lastmodType
.P
This attribute contains the type of the modification that occurred
to the last modified entry.  Legal values are
.BR add ,
.BR delete ,
.BR exop ,
.BR modify ,
.B modrdn
and
.BR unknown .
The latter should only be used as a fall-thru in case of unhandled
request types that are considered equivalent to a write operation.

.SH BUGS
It is unclear whether this overlay can safely interoperate 
with other overlays.
If the underlying backend does not implement entry_get/entry_release
handlers, modrdn update can become tricky.
The code needs some cleanup and more consistent error handling.
So far, the OIDs for the schema haven't been assigned yet.
