Table 5.1. Commonly-Used Tags
Tag
Description
tag=97
A result from a client bind operation.
tag=100
The actual entry being searched for.
tag=101
A result from a search operation.
tag=103
A result from a modify operation.
tag=105
A result from an add operation.
tag=107
A result from a delete operation.
tag=109
A result from a moddn operation.
tag=111
A result from a compare operation.
tag=115
A search reference when the entry on which the
search was performed holds a referral to the
required entry. Search references are expressed
in terms of a referral.
tag=120
A result from an extended operation.
NOTE
tag=100 and tag=115 are not result tags as such, and so it is unlikely that they will be
recorded in the access log.
Number of Entries
nentries shows the number of entries, in this case nentries=0, that were found matching the LDAP
client's request.
[21/Apr/2009:11:39:51 -0700] conn=11 op=0 RESULT err=0 tag=97 nentries=0 etime=0
Elapsed Time
etim e shows the elapsed time, in this case etim e=3, or the amount of time (in seconds) that it took
the Directory Server to perform the LDAP operation.
[21/Apr/2009:11:39:51 -0700] conn=11 op=1 RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=1 etime=3
notes=U
An etime value of 0 means that the operation actually took milliseconds to perform. To have
microsecond resolution for this item in the access log, enter a value of 131328 (256+131072) in the
nsslapd-accesslog-level configuration attribute.
LDAP Request Type
The LDAP request type indicates the type of LDAP request being issued by the LDAP client. Possible
values are:
SRCH for search
MOD for modify
DEL for delete
ADD for add
MODDN for moddn
EXT for extended operation
ABANDON for abandon operation
If the LDAP request resulted in sorting of entries, then the message SORT serialno will be recorded
in the log, followed by the number of candidate entries that were sorted. For example:
[04/May/2009:15:51:46 -0700] conn=114 op=68 SORT serialno (1)
The number enclosed in parentheses specifies the number of candidate entries that were sorted, which
in this case is 1.
LDAP Response Type
The LDAP response type indicates the LDAP response being issued by the LDAP client. There are three
possible values:
RESULT
