RE: Openldap2.4.16 performance issue



Off the top of my head:

1.       What indexes have been created? Do they match the attributes that your applications use most often?

2.       In this age of cheap RAM, 2GB RAM for a server seems puny. Latest Dell R710s come packed with 32-64GB RAM. Consider a hardware upgrade.

3.       Configure LB for active-active instead of active-passive?

4.       Turn on logging (any), run a small sample from the application and see what transactions eat up most cycles on the LDAP server.

5.       Upgrade from 2.4.16 to 2.4.xx?

Hi All,
 
I need help for openldap slapd 200% cpu utilization issue.
 
I have configured three openldap servers(2 Masters and 1 Slave). I have
configure PEN load balancer for failover setup on 2 master openldap servers.It
means application server first of all hit the loadbalancer port and than PEN LB
will forwad that request to Master 1 or 2 openldap server.
 
Hardware configuration on all boxes:
 
OS: RHEL5(x86_64)
RAM: 2GB
Number of CPU: 2(Intel(R) Xeon(R)2.00GHz)
 
Number of BDB databases: 2
 
Databse1: 
 
Number of users : 830000
Number of dns: 830000
 
Database2:
 
Number of users: 2000
Number of dns: 800000
 
My Application1 using Databse1 and Application2 using Databse2.
Application2 just authenticating the users and store last 10 password history
only, It means Application1 is not using openldap too much.
 
In Application2(90% dependent on openldap) every user have 1000+ sub leafs
entries. when I want to do major changes(number of leafs write) into this, it.s
got hanged and got socket closed error in application logs and CPU utilization
goes 200% and RAM 52%. My DB_CONFIG file is below:
 
# $OpenLDAP: pkg/ldap/servers/slapd/DB_CONFIG,v 1.3.2.4 2007/12/18 11:53:27
ghenry Exp $
# Example DB_CONFIG file for use with slapd(8) BDB/HDB databases.

# in particular:

# Note: most DB_CONFIG settings will take effect only upon rebuilding
# the DB environment.

# Note: special DB_CONFIG flags are no longer needed for "quick"
# slapadd(8) or slapindex(8) access (see their -q option).
 
Please help me here that what I need to do for better performance. Thanks in
advance.
