#1144 Wait for managed entry be created before returning
Closed: Fixed None Opened 13 years ago by rcritten.

When creating users and hostgroups we create a managed entry for them as well. This updates their objectclass (mepOriginEntry) and wreaks havoc on the automated tests.

I propose that we wait for the managed entry to be created by the 389-ds postop before returning to the user. This will slow down user-add by a little. It is a trade-off of speed vs correctness.


Can it be a config option in ipa.conf?

Yes. The function I have in mind to do the querying would be pretty generic but we could pass in a timeout and get that out of config.

The lack of this is causing a slew of tests to fail and it is difficult for everyone to know which tests should fail and which shouldn't.

We should add this as an optional setting, by default off.
