Environment
NetIQ Directory and Resource Administrator 9.x
Situation
When using the 32 bit Account and Resource Management , or Delegation and Configuration Console; also know as the 32 bit console there is no ability to search for any object type.
Resolution
The D&C console must be used to change the Administration Server options. To make this change use the following steps:
- Logon to any Windows OS hosting the D&C console as a DRA Admin with DRA Administration Powers
- Connect the console to the Primary DRA Server
- Expand the Tree under Delegation and Configuration
- From the Right Click Menu on Configuration section choose the Update Administration Server Options
- Once in the Administration Server Options window navigate to the Client Options link
- From the Client Options section put a check box in the 'Allow users to search on all objects'
- Click OK and Apply to save the choices
Additional Information
Enabling the ability to search on any object type should be done with caution. When a search is done against all object types, there a individual search queries run for every possible object type. In some very large enviornments this type of searching could have an impact on DRA Server performance.
