=head1 Service: bdii-update
The Berkeley Database Information Index (BDII) consists of two or more
standard LDAP databases that are populated by an update process.
Port forwarding is used to enable one or more databases to serve data
while one database is being refreshed. The databases are refreshed
cyclically. Any incoming connection is forwarded to the most recently
updated database, while old connections are allowed to linger until
it is the turn of their database to be refreshed and restarted.
The update process obtains LDIF from either
doing an ldapsearch on LDAP URLs or by running a local script (given
by a URL with B<file> protocol) that generates LDIF.
The LDIF is then inserted into the LDAP database.
Options exist to update the list of LDAP URLs from a web page and
to use an LDIF file from a web page to modify the data before it is
inserted into the database.
Configuration files: bdii-update.conf, bdii.conf
=head1 Service: bdii-fwd
The BDII fwd service is a TCP port forwarder that redirects request on
the external service port to any of a set of backend ports, always
taking the port of the most up-to-date slapd. Old connections are
allowed to linger until their slapd is restarted. The bdii-fwd service
is only started by the bdii-update service, never directly.
The service is stopped by the bdii init script on terminating
the bdii service.
Configuration files: bdii-fwd.conf (generated by bdii-update)
=head1 Service: bdii-proxy
Script to generate a proxy derived from the host certificate, to be made
available to info providers that query secure services. It is called
once when the BDII is started and henceforth regularly by a cron job.
=head1 Service: bdii
SystemV init script to start/stop the bdii-update service and the
bdii-related slapd daemons. It will write the slapd.conf configuration
files needed by the bdii slapd instances based on bdii.conf and the
schemas file.
Configuration files: bdii.conf, schemas
