Chapter 7. Setting the Number of Directory Server Threads

The number of threads Directory Server uses to handle simultaneous connections affects the performance of the server. For example, if all threads are busy handling time-consuming tasks (such as add operations), new incoming connections are queued until a free thread can process the request.
If the server provides a low number of CPU threads, configuring a higher number of threads can increase the performance. However, on a server with many CPU threads, setting a too high value does not further increase the performance.
By default, Directory Server automatically calculates the number of threads automatically. This number is based on the hardware resources of the server when the instance starts.

Note

Red Hat recommends to use the auto-tuning settings. Do not set the number of threads manually.

7.1. Automatic Thread Tuning

If you enable automatic thread tuning, Directory Server will use the following optimized number of threads:
Expand
Number of CPU Threads
Number of Directory Server Threads
1-16
16
17-512
The Directory Server thread number matches the CPU thread number in the system. For example, if your system has 24 CPU threads, Directory Server uses 24 threads. The maximum number of Directory Server threads is 512.
512 and more
512. Directory Server applies the recommended maximum number of threads.

7.1.1. Enabling Automatic Thread Tuning Using the Command Line
Copier lien

Directory Server can automatically set the number of threads based on the available hardware threads. To enable this feature:
  1. Enable automatic setting of the number of threads: 
    # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://server.example.com config replace nsslapd-threadnumber="-1"
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  2. Restart the Directory Server instance: 
    # dsctl instance_name restart
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Important

If you enabled the automatic setting of the number of threads, the nsslapd-threadnumber parameter shows the calculated number of threads while Directory Server is running.

7.1.2. Enabling Automatic Thread Tuning Using the Web Console

Directory Server can automatically set the number of threads based on the available hardware threads. To enable this feature:
  1. Open the Directory Server user interface in the web console. For details, see Logging Into Directory Server Using the Web Console section in the Red Hat Directory Server Administration Guide.
  2. Select the instance.
  3. Open the Server Settings menu, and select Tuning & Limits.
  4. Set the Number Of Worker Threads field to -1.
  5. Click Save.
  6. Click the Actions button, and select Restart Instance.

Important

If you enabled the automatic setting, the Number Of Worker Threads field shows the calculated number of threads while Directory Server is running.
