nsslapd-reservedescriptor = 20 + (NldbmBackends * 4) + NglobalIndex +
ReplicationDescriptor + ChainingBackendDescriptors + PTADescriptors +
SSLDescriptors
NldbmBackends is the number of ldbm databases.
NglobalIndex is the total number of configured indexes for all databases including system indexes.
(By default 8 system indexes and 17 additional indexes per database).
ReplicationDescriptor is eight (8) plus the number of replicas in the server that can act as a supplier
or hub (NSupplierReplica).
ChainingBackendDescriptors is NchainingBackend times the nsOperationConnectionsLimit (a
chaining or database link configuration attribute; 10 by default).
PTADescriptors is 3 if PTA is configured and 0 if PTA is not configured.
SSLDescriptors is 5 (4 files + 1 listensocket) if SSL is configured and 0 if SSL is not configured.
The server has to be restarted for changes to this attribute to go into effect.

2.3.1.90. nsslapd-return-exact-case (Return Exact Case)
Returns the exact case of attribute type names as requested by the client. Although LDAPv3-compliant
clients must ignore the case of attribute names, some client applications require attribute names to
match exactly the case of the attribute as it is listed in the schema when the attribute is returned by the
Directory Server as the result of a search or modify operation. However, most client applications ignore
the case of attributes; therefore, by default, this attribute is disabled. Do not modify it unless there are
legacy clients that can check the case of attribute names in results returned from the server.
The server has to be restarted for changes to this attribute to go into effect.
Parameter
Description
Entry DN
cn=config
Valid Values
on | off
Default Value
on
Syntax
DirectoryString
Example
nsslapd-return-exact-case: off
2.3.1.91. nsslapd-rewrite-rfc1274
This attribute is deprecated and will be removed in a later version.
This attribute is used only for LDAPv2 clients that require attribute types to be returned with their RFC
1274 names. Set the value to on for those clients. The default is off.
2.3.1.92. nsslapd-rootdn (Manager DN)
This attribute sets the distinguished name (DN) of an entry that is not subject to access control
restrictions, administrative limit restrictions for operations on the directory, or resource limits in general.
There does not have to be an entry corresponding to this DN, and by default there is not an entry for
this DN, thus values like cn=Directory Manager are acceptable.
For information on changing the root DN, see the "Creating Directory Entries" chapter in the Directory
Server Administrator's Guide.
Parameter
Description
Entry DN
cn=config
Valid Values
Any valid distinguished name
Default Value
Syntax
DN
Example
nsslapd-rootdn: cn=Directory Manager
2.3.1.93. nsslapd-rootpw (Root Password)
This attribute sets the password associated with the Manager DN. When the root password is provided,
it is encrypted according to the encryption method selected for the nsslapd-rootpwstoragescheme
attribute. When viewed from the server console, this attribute shows the value *****. When viewed
