You can configure the following advanced properties:
The increment by which the size of a connection pool is increased or decreased. If the remote-ldap-server-ssl-policy property is set to user, two pools of connections are created and the incremental change in size of each pool is set to pool-increment.
The default value is 5 connections.
The initial size of a connection pool. This is the initial number of connections to be created when a pool is initialized. Note that pool-initial-size is also minimum size of a pool.
The default value is 10 connections.
If the remote-ldap-server-ssl-policy property is set to user, two pools of connections are created and the initial size, and minimum size, of each pool is set to pool-initial-size. Therefore there can initially be twice the total number of connections indicated in pool-initial-size. For details, see Modes of Secure Connection.
The maximum size of a connection pool. This is the maximum number of connections that a pool can allocate. If the remote-ldap-server-ssl-policy property is set to user, two pools of connections are created and the maximum size of each pool is set to pool-max-size.
The default value is 1000 connections.
The maximum number of write connections that a connection pool can allocate at the same time. This is an integer. This parameter is taken into account only if the pool-use-max-write parameter is set to true.
The default value is 0 connections.
The time after which a connection is considered by the Sun OpenDS Standard Edition proxy to be unused if no traffic has been sent on it. This reduces the size of the pool of connections, if the pool has been previously increased. If the number of unused connections is greater than pool-increment, then the size of the pool is reduced by pool-increment. This means that unused connections are closed and are removed from the pool.
The default value is 300 000 milliseconds (5 minutes).
If this boolean is set to true, the pool-max-write parameter is taken into account, otherwise it is not. By default, pool-use-max-write is set to false.
When using the proxy authorization control mode, the default version of the control is v2. To use an older version for compatibility reasons, set proxied-auth-use-v1 to true. By default, proxied-auth-use-v1 is set to false. For more information about controls, see Supported LDAP Controls in Sun OpenDS Standard Edition 2.2 Architectural Reference.
The timeout for reads. If the timeout is reached before the remote LDAP server sends back a response, an error is returned by Sun OpenDS Standard Edition proxy to the client. By default, this value is 10 000 milliseconds.
The saturation precision is used in calculating the saturation threshold. Since the saturation limit can vary as requests are sent and received, the saturation precision indicates the buffer before the saturation is taken into account. In other words, by default the saturation can vary by 5% before it is taken into account.
The monitoring properties are described in LDAP Data Source Monitoring Connection Properties.
The SSL properties are security features. For information on these properties, see Configuring Security Between the Proxy and the Data Source.
To modify the advanced LDAP server extension properties, use the set-extension-prop --advanced command.
Note - These advanced properties are set by default and typically are not modified.
An example of an advanced property that you may want to change is the pool-max-size. If you have a powerful remote LDAP server and you have configured your Sun OpenDS Standard Edition proxy so that it receives a maximum of requests, then you can increase the pool-max-size as follows:
$ dsconfig -h localhost -p 4444 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w password -X -n \ set-extension-prop --advanced \ --extension-name DS-proxy5 \ --set pool-max-size:500
