clients to search alternative directory replicas. See “nsslapd-conntablesize”for information about file descriptor usage for incoming connections.

To assist in computing the number of file descriptors set for this attribute, use the following formula:

nsslapd-reservedescriptor = 20 + (NldbmBackends * 4) + NglobalIndex + ReplicationDescriptor + ChainingBackendDescriptors + PTADescriptors + SSLDescriptors

Where:

•NldbmBackends is the number of ldbm databases.

•NglobalIndex is the total number of configured indexes for all databases including system indexes. (By default 8 system indexes and 17 additional indexes per database).

•ReplicationDescriptor is eight (8) plus the number of replicas in the server that can act as a supplier or hub (NSupplierReplica).

•ChainingBackendDescriptors is NchainingBackend times the nsOperationConnectionsLimit (a chaining or database link configuration attribute; 10 by default).

•PTADescriptors is 3 if the Pass Through Authentication plug-in (PTA) is configured and 0 if PTA is not configured.

•SSLDescriptors is 5 (4 files + 1 listensocket) if SSL is configured and 0 if SSL is not configured.

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

2.3.1.84 nsslapd-return-exact-case (Return exact case)

Returns the exact case of attribute type names as requested by the client. Although LDAPv3-compliant clients must ignore the case of attribute names, some client applications require attribute names to match exactly the case of the attribute as it is listed in the schema when the attribute is returned by the Directory Server as the result of a search or modify operation. This attribute is enabled by default. However, HP recommends that client applications do not set expectations regarding the case of attributes returned from the server, as this violates LDAPv3.

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