NAME

       slapo-sssvlv - Server Side Sorting and Virtual List View overlay to slapd

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/ldap/slapd.conf

DESCRIPTION

       This  overlay  implements the LDAP Server Side Sorting (RFC2891) control as well as the Virtual List View
       control. It also replaces the default implementation of  the  LDAP  PagedResults  (RFC2696)  control,  to
       ensure that it works with Sorting. The overlay can be used with any backend or globally for all backends.

       Since  a complete result set must be generated in memory before sorting can be performed, processing sort
       requests can have a large impact on the server's memory use. As such, any connection is limited to having
       only a limited number of sort requests active at a time. Additional limits may be configured as described
       below.

CONFIGURATION

       These slapd.conf options apply to the SSSVLV overlay.  They should appear after the overlay directive.

       sssvlv-max <num>
              Set the maximum number of concurrent sort requests allowed across all connections. The default  is
              one half of the number of server threads.

       sssvlv-maxkeys <num>
              Set the maximum number of keys allowed in a sort request. The default is 5.

       sssvlv-maxperconn <num>
              Set  the  maximum number of concurrent paged search requests per connection. The default is 5. The
              number of concurrent requests remains limited by sssvlv-max.
