Identity feed operation fails and returns an LDAP error

The installation program sets a maximum of 500 search operations per application task. If you set up an identity feed for more than 500 to populate ISIM Server, the operation fails. We must configure the LDAP server that is supplying the user data for the number of users in the feed.

Set the maximum number of search entries

If the IBM Security Directory Server is the source of user data:

1. Use the IBM Security Directory Server Administration Console.

2. Edit the ibm-slapdSizeLimit variable in the ibmslapd.conf configuration file.

The default directory of ibmslapd.conf depends on the operating system.

Microsoft Windows systems

C:\idssldap-ldapdb2\etc

UNIX and Linux systems

/home/ldapdb2/idsslapd-ldapdb2/etc

Increasing the number of results in the user interface

1. Edit the enrole.ui.maxSearchResults property in the ui.properties file.
2. Increase the limit on the number of results displayed for a search.

To access the enRoleLogging.properties file, do these steps:

1. Log on to the IBM Security Identity Manager virtual appliance console.

2. From the Appliance Dashboard, use the Manage > System Settings > Log Retrieval and Configuration page to work with enRoleLogging.properties. See Configure logs.
