dont_log_unavailable_controls_at_loglevel_none.quilt

After updating to UCS 4.3 latest errata a customer found his syslog growing faster than usual, filling with messages like

Aug 22 19:40:01 ucsserver slapd[19596]: slap_global_control: unrecognized control: 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.666.5.16

Aug 22 19:40:38 ucsserver slapd[19596]: slap_global_control: unrecognized control: 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.8.5.1

This is a side effect of the adjusted ldap/debug/level (Bug #47196).

The attached patch should fix this.

This is non-critical, there is just an LDAP client trying to use the dref and ppolicy controls and the server doesn't have the corresponding overlays loaded.

This issue has been filed against UCS 4.3.

UCS 4.3 is out of maintenance and many UCS components have changed in later releases. Thus, this issue is now being closed.

If this issue still occurs in newer UCS versions, please use "Clone this bug" or reopen it and update the UCS version. In this case please provide detailed information on how this issue is affecting you.
