Information used to monitor the server is stored under cn=monitor. This entry and its children

are read-only; clients cannot directly modify them. The server updates this information

automatically. This section describes the cn=monitor attributes. The only attribute that can be

changed by a user to set access control is the aci attribute.

connection.

This attribute lists open connections. These are given in the following format:

connection: A:YYYYMMDDhhmmssZ:B:C:D:E

For example:

connection: 31:20010201164808Z:45:45::cn=directory manager

• A is the connection number, which is the number of the slot in the connection table

associated with this connection. This is the number logged as slot=A in the access log

message when this connection was opened, and usually corresponds to the file descriptor

associated with the connection. The attribute dTableSize shows the total size of the

connection table.

• YYYYMMDDhhmmssZ is the date and time, in GeneralizedTime form, at which the

connection was opened. This value gives the time in relation to Greenwich Mean Time.

• B is the number of operations received on this connection.

• C is the number of completed operations.

• D is r if the server is in the process of reading BER from the network, empty otherwise. This

value is usually empty (as in the example).

• E this is the bind DN. This may be empty or have value of NULLDN for anonymous

connections.
