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.

Description Noriko Hosoi 2012-10-09 17:28:22 UTC

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/446

Performing an ldapsearch in 389-ds-base-1.2.10.14-1.fc16.x86_64 in a container with > 5000 entries errors with result: 11 Administrative limit exceeded.

The dse.ldif is set for appropriately high limits.  I am using the Directory Manager user to perform the search.  The search is being performed locally but the limit is still getting hit

Comment 1 Nathan Kinder 2012-10-09 17:52:56 UTC

From the trac ticket:

--------------------------------------------------
Here are the exact steps to reproduce the issue:

[1] Add the resource limit entry:

dn: cn=anonymous limits,dc=example,dc=com
cn: anonymous limits
objectClass: top
objectClass: nscontainer
nsLookThroughLimit: 5000

[2] Then add this to cn=config:

nsslapd-anonlimitsdn: cn=anonymous limits,dc=example,dc=com

[3] Add 5001 entries

[4] do a ldapsearch for objectclass=*:

ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -xLLL -b "dc=example,dc=com" objectclass=* dn

Administrative limit exceeded (11)

--------------------------------------------------
