nsslapd-sizelimit

size limit

Description

Specifies the maximum number of entries to return from a search operation. If this limit is reached, the server returns any entries it has located that match the search request, as well as an exceeded size limit error.

When no limit is set, the server will return every matching entry to the client regardless of the number found. To set a no limit value whereby Directory Server will wait indefinitely for the search to complete, specify a value of -1 for this attribute in the dse.ldif file.

This limit applies to everyone regardless of their organization.
