I do see that message: [11/May/2026:09:39:25.771331509 -0600] - NOTICE - bdb_start - Resizing max db lock count: 50000 -> 50018 and dsconf config get shows: nsslapd-db-locks: 50018 but the ldapsearch results stay small as above. Other machines the ldapsearch show the larger number: # database, monitor, ldbm database, plugins, config dn: cn=database,cn=monitor,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config nsslapd-db-current-locks: 114 nsslapd-db-max-locks: 50018 So it seems that something is messed up with this particular host. -- Orion Poplawski he/him/his - surely the least important thing about me Manager of IT Systems 720-772-5637 NWRA, Boulder Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion@nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 https://www.nwra.com/
