Best practices with LDIF Development for RBAC?

user602387Jan 3 2008
I'm currently working on enforcing RBAC (Role Based Access controls) in OID that may be subject to change every few months. What I've currently been doing is writing LDIF files to make changes to the existing RBAC once the changes have been finalized.

Unfortunately, now we have ended up with a growing list of LDIF files that must be run in sequential order if we were to build a new environment. Any defects or development errors that slip through developer unit testing must be handled in the same manner.

What is the best practice process for performing this type of development? Would it make more sense to have one LDIF file that removes all of the RBAC enforcement (via ldapmodify -c), and then a separate file that will install the latest and most up to date version? I've also considered just using one LDIF file, appending any updates to the end of it and using the ldapmodify command with the -c parameter
