2.2.2.2. Red Hat Enterprise Linux System Configuration
After verifying the system's kernel and glibc configuration and installing any required modules and
patches, fine-tune the Red Hat Enterprise Linux system to work with Directory Server. For the best
performance, configure the host server
before
configuring the Directory Server instance by running the
setup-ds-admin.pl
script.

2.2.2.2.1. Perl Prerequisites
For Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems, use the Perl version that is installed with the operating system
in
/usr/bin/perl
for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Red Hat Directory Server.
2.2.2.2.2. File Descriptors
Editing the number of file descriptors on the Linux system can help Directory Server access files more
efficiently. Editing the maximum number of file descriptors the kernel can allocate can also improve file
access speeds.
1. First, check the current limit for file descriptors:
cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
2. If the setting is lower than
64000
, edit the
/etc/sysctl.conf
file, and reset the
fs.file-max
parameter:
fs.file-max = 64000
3. Then increase the maximum number of open files on the system by editing the
/etc/security/
limits.conf
configuration file. Add the following entry:
