3.4 .3. Database Attributes under cn=NetscapeRoot, cn=ldbm database, cn=plugins,
cn=config and cn=userRoot, cn=ldbm database, cn=plugins, cn=config
The cn=NetscapeRoot and cn=userRoot subtrees contain configuration data for, or the definition of,
the databases containing the o=NetscapeRoot and o=userRoot suffixes. The cn=NetscapeRoot
subtree contains the configuration data used by the Administration Server for authentication and all
actions that cannot be performed through LDAP (such as start/stop), and the cn=userRoot subtree
contains all the configuration data for the user-defined database.
The cn=userRoot subtree is called userRoot by default. However, this is not hard-coded and, given
the fact that there are going to be multiple database instances, this name is changed and defined by the
user as and when new databases are added. The cn=userRoot database referenced can be any user
database.
The following attributes are common to both the cn=NetscapeRoot, cn=ldbm database,
cn=plugins, cn=config and the user database, such as cn=userRoot or cn=database_name,
cn=ldbm database, cn=plugins, cn=config subtrees.
3.4 .3.1. nsslapd-cachesize
This attribute has been deprecated. To resize the entry cache, use nsslapd-cachememsize.
This performance tuning-related attribute specifies the cache size in terms of the number of entries it
can hold. However, this attribute is deprecated in favor of the nsslapd-cachememsize attribute, which
sets an absolute allocation of RAM for the entry cache size, as described in
Section 3.4.3.2, “nsslapd-
cachememsize” .
Attempting to set a value that is not a number or is too big for a 32-bit signed integer (on 32-bit systems)
returns an LDAP_UNWILLING_TO_PERFORM error message with additional error information explaining
the problem.
The server has to be restarted for changes to this attribute to go into effect.
NOTE
The performance counter for this setting goes to the highest 64-bit integer, even on 32-bit
systems, but the setting itself is limited on 32-bit systems to the highest 32-bit integer because of
how the system addresses memory.
