Hi, we use following approaches: 1. we limit the idle connection time "net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_time = ..." in /etc/sysctl.conf 2. fs.file-max = 65000 in the same sysct.conf 3. In "/etc/profile" we have added the libe "ulimit -n 65000", otherwise /etc/init.d/dirsrv takes the value by default of 8192 4. echo "ldap hard nofile 65000" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "ldap soft nofile 65000" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "ldap hard core 64" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "ldap soft core 64" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "root hard nofile 65000" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "root soft nofile 65000" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "root hard core 64" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "root soft core 64" >> /etc/security/limits.conf 5. verification of unindexed searches ("notes=U") 6. nsscache on clients we have approx 180 clients, and even without nsscache about 300 conns in parallel are ok... You can also use logconv.pl -V logfile to analyse your logs and stats... 2009/2/26 Chavez, James R. <james.chavez at sanmina-sci.com> > > > Thanks, I think that may be our issue.
