CoS Processing - DNs compete for attribute

Hello,

a colleague of mine is facing the below issue:

LDAP error logs

Warning<33815>: Definition DN and definition DN compete to provide

attribute 'name' at priority number Templates 'DN' 'DN'

According to Sun, the Cause is

=================

CoS processing is resolving competing definitions.

=================

- Can anybody elaborate on the meaning of that?

- Is it harmful?

- Can it be ignored?

The Sun website also says that there are no solutions for such warning...

Thanks for all the answers...

This means that there are 2 CoS Definitions that are trying to produce the same Virtual attribute with the same priority.

The result is indeterministic (ie which value will be chosen may be different for the same entry at different times).

Evaluate both CoS Definitions and CoS Templates, check why there are 2 of them for the same attribute. Change the priority for one of them.
