Ability to set maximum size
& time limits using Netscape Console.
|
Try This:
Change the size limit from
2000 to 1000 entries. Change the time limit to 2400 seconds. |
Factoid:
Some LDAP clients can cause
the server to actually use smaller values for Size Limit and Time Limit. |

Tuning Your Server
Now that you've got Netscape Console running and have found the Administrative
window for your Directory Server, there are several parameters you can
change which can improve your server's performance.
Click on the Configuration tab to display the window shown here:

Changing Performance Parameters
The Directory Server's administrative window provided by Netscape
Console lets you set some key configuration parameter values. If
you click on the Performance tab in the Configuration window
you'll have the opportunity to set 3 of them:
Size limit in entries. This parameter specifies the maximum number
of entries the server will return to the client in response to a search
operation. If this limit is reached, the server returns any entries
it has located that match the search request, as well as an exceeded size
limit error. The default value for this parameter is 2,000.
Decreasing this value could reduce your average search time but will also
limit the number of results returned on very large searches.
Time limit in seconds. This parameter specifies the maximum
amount of real time the server spends performing a request. If this
limit is reached during a search, the server returns any entries it has
located that match the search request, as well as an exceeded time limit
error. The default value for this parameter is 3,600. Decreasing
this value will produce similar results to decreasing Size Limit.
Idle Timeout. This parameter specifies the amount of time
in seconds afterwhich an idle LDAP client connection is closed by the server.
A value of 0 indicates that the server will never close idle connections.
