Red Hat DIRECTORY SERVER 8.1 Command Reference Manual page 110

Chapter 2. Core Server Configuration Reference
section describes the cn=monitor attributes. The only attribute that can be changed by a user to set
access control is the aci attribute.
If the nsslapd-counters attribute in cn=config is set to on (the default setting), then all of
the counters kept by the Directory Server instance increment using 64-bit integers, even on 32-bit
machines or with a 32-bit version of Directory Server. For the cn=monitor entry, the 64-bit integers
are used with the opsinitiated, opscompleted, entriessent, and bytessent counters.
NOTE
The nsslapd-counters attribute enables 64-bit support for these specific database
and server counters. The counters which use 64-bit integers are not configurable; the
64-bit integers are either enabled for all the allowed counters or disabled for all allowed
counters.
connection
This attribute lists open connections. These are given in the following format:
connection: A:YYYYMMDDhhmmssZ:B:C:D:E
For example:
connection: 31:20010201164808Z:45:45::cn=directory manager
• A is the connection number, which is the number of the slot in the connection table associated
with this connection. This is the number logged as slot=A in the access log message when
this connection was opened, and usually corresponds to the file descriptor associated with the
connection. The attribute dTableSize shows the total size of the connection table.
• YYYYMMDDhhmmssZ is the date and time, in GeneralizedTime form, at which the connection was
opened. This value gives the time in relation to Greenwich Mean Time.
• B is the number of operations received on this connection.
• C is the number of completed operations.
• D is r if the server is in the process of reading BER from the network, empty otherwise. This value is
usually empty (as in the example).
• E this is the bind DN. This may be empty or have value of NULLDN for anonymous connections.
currentConnections
This attribute shows the number of currently open and active Directory Server connections.
totalConnections
This attribute shows the total number of Directory Server connections. This number includes
connections that have been opened and closed since the server was last started in addition to the
currentConnections.
