Is it possible to add an alias to a schema atrribute type in openldap? Could anyone provide the command line instruction to accomplish this?

For example,

Inherits from   
Equality    telephoneNumberMatch
Ordering    (not specified)

Aliases (none)
Used by objectClasses   dmd documentSeries domain organization            organizationalPerson organizationalRole organizationalUnit person    residentialPerson RFC822localPart room

I want to update the Aliases from none to "Test1"

You need to locate the scheme entry in one of the files in the schemas directory and add the alias there. You'll find other examples in those files of what an alias looks like. Then just restart the server.
