Novell eDirectory 8.7.3 for Linux
Situation
LUM is configured to used an eDirectory LDAP server that does not
hold a master, read/write or read only replica of the partitions
where users and/or groups are located.
namcd uses a persistent search connection to LDAP to submit queries for users and/or groups.
namcd is resubmitting queries for users and/or groups every 10 seconds to the LDAP server.
LDAP server is correctly tree walking to servers that contain either master or read/write replicas of the partitions where the users and/or groups are located.
