Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 Administrator's Guide

Table Header Description
Read/Write Indicates whether the server is currently
blocked for read or write access to the client.
There are two possible values:
Not blocked means that the server is
idle,actively sending data to the client, or
actively reading data from the client.
Blocked means that the server is trying to
send data to the client or read data from the
client but cannot. The probable cause is a
slow network or client.
Table 13.4. Connection Status
Table Header Description
Hits The number of times the server could process
a request by obtaining data from the cache
rather than by going to the disk.
Tries The total number of requests performed on
the directory since server startup.
Hit Ratio The ratio of cache tries to successful cache
hits. The closer this number is to 100%, the
better.
Pages Read In The number of pages read from disk into the
cache.
Pages Written Out The number of pages written from the cache
back to disk.
Read-Only Page Evicts The number of read-only pages discarded
from the cache to make room for new pages.
Pages discarded from the cache have to be
written to disk, possibly affecting server
performance. The lower the number of page
evicts the better.
Read-Write Page Evicts The number of read-write pages discarded
from the cache to make room for new pages.
This value differs from Pages Written Out in
that these are discarded read-write pages that
have not been modified. Pages discarded
from the cache have to be written to disk,
possibly affecting server performance. The
lower the number of page evicts, the better.
