4.7. Log Files

Each Directory Server instance contains a /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name directory
for storing log files. The following is a sample listing of the /logs directory contents.
access
access.20090221-162824
access.20090223-171949
access.20090227-171818
Example 4.5. Log Directory Contents
• The content of the access, audit, and error log files is dependent on the log configuration.
• The slapd.stats file is a memory-mapped file which cannot be read by an editor. It contains data
collected by the Directory Server SNMP data collection component. This data is read by the SNMP
subagent in response to SNMP attribute queries and is communicated to the SNMP master agent
responsible for handling Directory Server SNMP requests.

4.8. PID Files

slapd-serverID.pid and slapd-serverID.startpid files are created in the /var/run/
dirsrv directory when the server is up and running. Both files store the server's process ID.

4.9. Tools

Directory Server tools are stored in three directories on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (32-bit):
• /usr/bin
• /usr/sbin
• /usr/lib/mozldap
The contents of those directories are listed below.
