The current code assumes that an entity will always have a corresponding LDAPObject on the server, so it looks for the metadata in a fixed location. This assumption doesn't work for HBAC Test since it is a Command, not an LDAPObject, so the metadata has to be obtained from a different location. A new method get_default_metadata() has been added to allow each entity to find the metadata from the correct location. Ticket #388
Ground rules on adding new schema Brand new schema, particularly when written specifically for IPA, should be added in share/*.ldif. Any new files need to be explicitly loaded in ipaserver/install/dsinstance.py. These simply get copied directly into the new instance schema directory. Existing schema (e.g. in an LDAP draft) may either be added as a separate ldif in share or as an update in the updates directory. The advantage of adding the schema as an update is if 389-ds ever adds the schema then the installation won't fail due to existing schema failing to load during bootstrap. If the new schema requires a new container then this should be added to install/bootstrap-template.ldif.
