Set-R1DirectoryAttribute

SYNOPSIS

Updates an attribute in the directory schema.

SYNTAX

Set-R1DirectoryAttribute [-attribute] <String> [[-alias] <String[]>] [[-description] <String>]
 [[-syntax] <String>] [[-multiValued] <Boolean>] [[-operational] <Boolean>] [[-isRequired] <Boolean>]
 [[-isHiddenInLogs] <Boolean>] [[-objectclass] <String>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Updates the definition of an attribute in the LDAP schema.

The current definition is retrieved before it is updated, and sent back with the supplied values applied over it, so a property left unspecified keeps its current value. The command therefore issues a GET followed by a PUT, and the account needs permission to read the definition as well as to change it.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

Set-R1DirectoryAttribute -attribute 'employeeShift' -multiValued $true

Makes employeeShift multi valued, leaving its other properties as they are.

NOTES

The object identifier and whether the attribute is user generated are maintained by the server and cannot be changed here. They are sent back unaltered so that the update carries the complete definition.

A collection which is specified replaces the collection currently configured, rather than being added to it. Retrieve the current value, add to it and pass the result back to append.
