I have been doing some stress tests on the FDS in order to try and configure the server for an enterprise wide deployment. My goal is to recommend the number of slave/master servers and the appropriate configuration for an environment with 10k users. Starting with a default FDS installation I have modified the directory accordingly: 10k users id's the max cache size: 63Mb Lookthrough limit: 15000 Max file descriptors: 4096 memory avail. for cache: 100Mb Created an index for uidnumber I have created a php script to stress test the server. The script has the following parameters: processes 500 # number of simultaneous connections binds 5 #number of times the script will loop query 50 # number of queries to make min sleep 1 # min time between queries max sleep 5 # max time between queries uid_number 50000 # search for this uidnumber server 10.27.1.104 #host ldap server Running this script will generate "can't contact the LDAP server" errors. My question is should I be looking at some other parameters to modify in order to have the server handle more simultaneous connections. 500 connections doesn't seem like an unreasonable number of connections for an enterprise directory server, yet the server is rolling over at what seems to be a pretty light load... Any insights on how best to configure the server to handle a larger number of connections would be greatly appreciated.
