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

subject DN in the certificate.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=config
Valid Values on | off
Default Value on
Syntax DirectoryString
Example nsslapd-ssl-check-hostname: on
3.1.94. nsslapd-threadnumber (Thread Number)
Defines the number of operation threads that the Directory Server creates at startup. The
nsslapd-threadnumber value should be increased if there are many directory clients
performing time-consuming operations such as add or modify, as this ensures that there are
other threads available for servicing short-lived operations such as simple searches. This value
may also need increased if there are many replication agreements or chained backends
(database links). This attribute is not available from the server console.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=config
Valid Range 1 to the maximum number of threads
supported by the system
Default Value 30
Syntax Integer
Example nsslapd-threadnumber: 60
3.1.95. nsslapd-timelimit (Time Limit)
This attribute sets the maximum number of seconds allocated for a search request. If this limit is
reached, Directory Server returns any entries it has located that match the search request, as
well as an exceeded time limit error.
When no limit is set, ns-slapd returns every matching entry to the client regardless of the time
it takes. To set a no limit value whereby Directory Server waits indefinitely for the search to
complete, specify a value of -1 for this attribute in the dse.ldif file. A value of zero (0) causes
no time to be allowed for searches. The smallest time limit is 1 second.
