ViewDS Version 7.0
The current version for ViewDS is 7.0, which was released in October 2009. The new features
that have been included in ViewDS 7.0 are:
ViewDS Management Agent
The ViewDS Management Agent is a Windows application that allows the central management of
one or more ViewDS servers.
The ViewDS Management Agent replaces the View500 AdminDUA. Certificate-based authentication
is used between the ViewDS Management Agent and DSA, and between the ViewDS Management Agent
and RAS.
Remote Administration Service
The Remote Administration Service (RAS) is a new component that is provided with the ViewDS
server. The RAS allows the Management Agent to completely manage a ViewDS server, including
file system settings and the ability to start and stop a ViewDS server.
Updated Documentation Suite
The ViewDS documentation is provided as three documents; the Installation
and Operations Guide, the Technical Reference Guide for the Directory
System Agent, and the Technical Reference Guide for the User Interfaces.
Role and Time based Access Control
The Basic Access Control scheme has been extended to allow dynamic user inclusion for an
access control item. User inclusion can be based on a search filter which allows a user's
inclusion to be based on the attributes of the user's entry.
This extension to the Basic Access Control scheme facilitates attribute based access control,
role based access control and access controls based on times (e.g. day of week, hour if day,
etc).
Word List Management
The management of word lists, such as synonyms, noise words and truncations can be managed
at runtime and are now stored within the DIT.
By storing these words in the DIT, they can now be replicated to other ViewDS servers.
