Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 Configuration, Command, and File Reference

Parameter Description

Default Value

Syntax DirectoryString

Example nsDS5ReplicaRoot: "dc=example,dc=com"

3.8.19. nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime

This attribute sets the amount of time in seconds a supplier should wait between update

sessions. The default value is 0. If the attribute is set to a negative value, Directory Server

sends the client a message and an LDAP_UNWILLING_TO_PERFORM error code.

The nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime attribute works in conjunction with the

nsDS5ReplicaBusyWaitTime attribute. The two attributes are designed so that the

nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime interval is always at least one second longer than the interval

specified for nsDS5ReplicaBusyWaitTime. The longer interval gives waiting suppliers a better

chance to gain consumer access before the previous supplier can re-access the consumer.

• If either attribute is specified but not both, nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime is set

automatically to 1 second more than nsDS5ReplicaBusyWaitTime.

• If both attributes are specified, but nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime is less than or equal to

nsDS5ReplicaBusyWaitTime, nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime is set automatically to 1

second more than nsDS5ReplicaBusyWaitTime.

When setting the values, ensure that the nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime interval is at least 1

second longer than the interval specified for nsDS5ReplicaBusyWaitTime. Increase the interval

as needed until there is an acceptable distribution of consumer access among the suppliers.

Set the nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime attribute at any time by using changetype:modify

with the replace operation. The change takes effect for the next update session if one is

already in progress.

If Directory Server has to reset the value of nsDS5ReplicaSessionPauseTime automatically, the

value is changed internally only. The change is not visible to clients, and it is not saved to the

configuration file. From an external viewpoint, the attribute value appears as originally set.
