2.3.1.36 nsslapd-config

This read-only attribute is the config DN.

Parameter

Description

Entry DN

cn=config

 

 

Valid Values

Any valid configuration DN

 

 

Default Value

 

 

 

Syntax

DirectoryString

 

 

Example

nsslapd-config: cn=config

 

 

2.3.1.37 nsslapd-conntablesize

This attribute sets the connection table size, which determines the total number of connections supported by the server.

The server has to be restarted for changes to this attribute to go into effect.

Parameter

Description

Entry DN

cn=config

 

 

Valid Values

Operating-system dependent

 

 

Default Value

The default value is the process max descriptors, which can be configured using the

 

“nsslapd-maxdescriptors (Maximum file descriptors)” attribute.

 

 

Syntax

Integer

 

 

Example

nsslapd-conntablesize: 4093

 

 

Increase the value of this attribute if Directory Server is refusing connections because it is out of connection slots. When this occurs, the Directory Server's error log file records the message Not listening for new connections -- too many fds open.

A server restart is required for the change to take effect.

You might have to do the following:

•Increase the operating system limits for the number of open files and number of open files per process

•Edit the Directory Server environment configuration file /etc/opt/dirsrv/config/ dirsrv to increase the ulimit for the number of open files (ulimit -n)

For more information, see “nsslapd-maxdescriptors (Maximum file descriptors)”.

2.3.1.38 nsslapd-counters

Enables or disables some counters.

This version of Directory Server uses 64-bit numbers to avoid wrapping for some performance and operational counters, such as entrycachetries and entriessent. However, arithmetic operations on 64-bit numbers can impact performance in some situations. Turning off the counters can provide a minimal improvement to performance, while negatively affecting long-term statistics tracking.
