Tuning LDAP performance
The LMS user management functions assume an LDAP directory as the primary container of user and group information. The LDAP directory contains the attributes that describe each user (for example, first name, last name, department number, organization, phone number, etc.), and it is used to authenticate each user that logs onto LMS.
When a user successfully authenticates (this process is actually handled by the WebSphere Application Server), LMS searches the user's entry in the LDAP directory and retrieves the values of all required user attributes. These attribute values are cached by LMS by storing them in the USR table of the relational databases (LMM and DS) so that they may be reused during the session. This prevents repeated queries against the LDAP directory and improves overall performance of the application.
Every time a user logs in, LMS checks if the user’s attributes have changed in the LDAP directory and updates the value stored in the USR table. If the LDAP attributes of a user changes while a user is logged in, LMS will not be aware of these changes during this session. The user will have to log in again. This is the
LDAP tuning guidelines
Every LDAP directory vendor supports some mechanism for performance tuning. Some vendors allow you to control caching or buffering options while some allow you to create indexes on the data in the directory. Use the following guidelines when tuning your LDAP directory to increase the performance of LMS:
1.Make sure that the user attributes that are important to LMS are defined in the LDAP section of the settings files (settings.xml,
2.LMS uses the user name specified in the login screen to look up a user's entry in the LDAP directory. You should make sure that the corresponding LDAP attribute (for example, uid) is indexed by the database that powers your LDAP directory.
3.When a user logs in, LMS attempts to determine whether the user is a manager (having other people reporting to the user). If the user’s LDAP entry does not have an attribute that specifies this information (for example, isManager), LMS has to perform an additional query against the LDAP directory. This query determines if at least one other user has this user as manager. The user will only be presented with the first LMS screen after all lookups have been completed. Especially on large directories this search can be very
