The "&" operator in this case does not work like a short circuit AND operator in most programming languages. 389 ds may consult both indexes in an attempt to optimize the query. > > conn=308 op=1 SRCH base="o=blah.com" scope=2 > filter="(&(accountid=abc123)(authrole=PowerUser))" attrs=ALL > conn=308 op=1 RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=1 etime=0 notes=U > > Do I need to index the authrole attribute as well in order for the > indexes to be used on a query like this?

In the LDAP world this is highly server dependent, so there is not really a sort of generic LDAP server index methodology, as there might be in the SQL world. I suggest starting here - http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/Managing_Indexes.html and here - http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/Tuning_DS_Performance.html > > Thanks. > > Jim. > -- > 389 users mailing list > 389-users at lists.fedoraproject.org > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
