Subject: [PATCH 271/305] Ticket 47900 - Server fails to start if password
dc8c34
 admin is set
dc8c34
dc8c34
Bug Description:  The server will crash at startup if the password admin is set.
dc8c34
dc8c34
Fix Description:  When creating a password policy for the pblock, which we do
dc8c34
                  for add and modifiy operations, make sure the server is fully
dc8c34
                  up and running before searching backends for password admins.
dc8c34
dc8c34
                  Also, allow passwordAdminDN to be deleted from the cn=config.
