What is the preferred way to make config changes

Hi,

In one of the GitHub issues [1] it was mentioned that

What CLI and/or UI is this?

For example, what is the preferred way to change nsslapd-db-deadlock-policy?

Starting in 389-ds-base-1.4.x we offer a web UI Cockpit plugin: 
cockpit-389-ds.  We also have a extensive python CLI toolset: dsconf, 
dsctl, dsidm, and dscreate.  These are all documented in the Admin guide.

For db deadlock policy you would use dsconf like this:

dsconf slapd-YOUR_INSTANCE backend config set --deadlock-policy 6

HTH,

Mark

Hi Kees,

That should be:
 dsconf *instance* backend config set --deadlock-policy *policy*
