Two new monitor entries are present for a backend monitor entry.

Administrators see the following additional monitor entries on cn=userRoot Backend,cn=monitor:

ds-soft-delete-entry-operations-count

Displays the number of soft deletes performed on the backend since server startup.

ds-undelete-operations-count

Displays the number of undeletes performed on the backend since server startup.

ds-backend-soft-deleted-entry-count

Displays the current number of soft-deleted entries in the database.

ds-auto-purged-soft-deleted-entry-count

Displays the current number of soft-deleted entries purged since the backend or server was restarted.

Monitoring soft deletes

Monitor soft deletes using the ldapsearch command.

Steps

  • Run ldapsearch on the cn=userRoot Backend,cn=monitor branch using a search criteria targeting the ds-backend-monitor-entry object class.

    Example:

    $ bin/ldapsearch --baseDN "cn=userRoot Backend,cn=monitor" \
  --searchScope sub "(objectclass=ds-backend-monitor-entry)"

    Result:

    dn: cn=userRoot Backend,cn=monitor

objectClass: ds-backend-monitor-entry
