Message Parts in an Access Log

Messages for the connections between a client and the Directory Proxy Server are labeled in the same way as in Directory Server. Table 23–4 describes parts of the messages between the client and the Directory Proxy Server in Example 23–2. For an explanation of all of the possible message parts, see Content of Access, Error, and Audit Logs.

Table 23–3 Message Parts for Connections Between a Client and a Directory Proxy Server

Log Message Part 

Description 

conn

Identifier for the connection between the client and the Directory Proxy Server. 

op

The number of an operation on a given connection. The first operation on a connection has the value op=0. Subsequent requests on the connection have increasing numbers, op=1, op=2, etc.

msgid

The number of a message to be sent to a client application. The LDAP protocol is mainly asynchronous. If a client request requires a response from a server, the response is given in the following steps: 

  • The directory server acknowledges the request and assigns a msgid

  • The directory server responds to the request by using the msgid identifier

A response can be sent in multiple packets, where each packet is identified by the same msgid.

nentries

The number of entries returned by a search request. 

err

The result code returned from the LDAP operation. The error number 0 means that the operation was successful. For a list of LDAP result codes, see Result Codes in Log Files.

msg

A human readable error diagnostic. 

Messages for the connections between Directory Proxy Server and a data source are prefixed with s_. Table 23–4 describes parts of the messages between the Directory Proxy Server and the data source in Example 23–2.
