Limiting the number of returned search entries and search time
Steps
-
To search for a subset of the entries in the
ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
subtree, specify a compound filter.Example:
In the following example, no more than 200 entries will be returned and the server will spend no more than 5 seconds processing the request. Returned attributes are restricted to a few operational attributes.
$ bin/ldapsearch --baseDN ou=People,dc=example,dc=com \ --searchScope sub --sizeLimit 200 --timeLimit 5 \ "(&(sn<=Doe)(employeeNumber<=1000))" ds-entry-unique-id entryUUID
