Abstract

A method for deploying a directory server that includes receiving a new version of the directory server on a server to replace a prior version of the directory server, wherein the new version of the directory server uses a new version of an access policy and the prior directory server uses a prior version of the access policy, and configuring the new version of the directory server to use both the prior version of access policy and the new version of the access policy, wherein the new version of the directory server maintains compatibility between the new version of the access policy and the prior version of the access policy.
