Hi Everyone,

I was wondering what experiences people have had with large groups (> 100k 
members) in 389 DS?
Particularly interested in loading, managing and syncing them.
WRT syncing – how do people efficiently sync large groups?  Most sync utilities 
sync at the attribute level; if the changed attribute (eg member) is 
multivalued, it just replaces all values.  That’s OK if there’s only a few 
values, but is not efficient when there are a large number of them.  A more 
efficient way would be to diff the 2 attributes and add/delete the differences; 
does anyone know of any sync tools that do something like this?

Background:
I have a few particularly large groups of > 500k members that are currently 
handled in a DBMS, but want to migrate them to LDAP instead.
When I try to load them via ldapmodify, doing an add:member per member was 
going to take more than 24 hrs at rate of processing at the time of abort.
Trying to add all members instead, with a single add:member and listing all 
members after that instruction, eventually ended with an Operations Error.  
Turning on housekeeping error level showed it was getting “Lock table is out of 
available lock entries” error – I’m in the process of retrying with adjusted 
nsslapd-db-locks in cn=config,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config.

Thanks,
Trev
