Issue ID: 9804 Summary: slapd.conf(5) - remove comment from syncrepl about sizelimit Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: documentation Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: michael@stroeder.com Target Milestone: ---
slapd.conf(5) and slapd-config(5) contain the following really mis-leading text:
"The sizelimit and timelimit parameters define a consumer requested limitation on the number of entries that can be returned by the LDAP Content Synchronization operation; as such, it is intended to implement partial replication based on the size of the replicated database and on the time required by the synchronization."
This is wrong. One cannot implement deterministic partial replication with these limits.
=> This text should be removed.
