Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

commit c21515b1577d5e71fddc20b91bae7abfda6c90e1
Author: Rich Megginson <rmeggins>

    Branch: master
    Fix Description: Changed the ldbm_config for idlistscanlimit to allow running
    change.  Added a new attribute nsIDListScanLimit that works just like
    nsLookThroughLimit for user entries.  For each search operation, calculate
    the idlistscanlimit to use based on any nsIDListScanLimit or database config.
    The biggest change was to extend the internal database API to allow the
    idlistscanlimit (aka allidslimit) to be passed down into the lowest level of
    the code where it is used.
    Platforms tested: RHEL6 x86_64
    Flag Day: no
    Doc impact: Yes - will need to document how nsIDListScanLimit and
    nsslapd-idlistscanlimit work now

I could successfully run ldapmodify against idlistscanlimit per user and global config attributes. Hence marking the bug as verified.
