ldclt – load test program for LDAP

SYNOPSYS

ldclt [-qQvV] [-E <max errors>] [-b <base DN>] [-h <host>] [-p <port>] [-t <timeout>] [-D <bind DN>] [-w <passwd>] [-o <SASL option>] [-e <execParams>] [-a <max pending>] [-n <nb threads>] [-i <nb times>] [-N <nb samples>] [-I <err number>] [-T <total>] [-r <low> -R <high>] [-f <filter>] [-s <scope>] [-S <slave>] [-P<master port>] [-W <waitsec>] [-Z <certfile>]

DESCRIPTION

This tool is a LDAP client targeted to validate the reliability of the product under a wide variety of stress conditions.

OPTIONS

The valid options are:

-a

Asynchronous mode, with max pending operations.

-b

Give the base DN to use. Default "dc=example,dc=com".

-D

Bind DN. See -w

-E

Max errors allowed. Default 1000.

-f

Filter for searches.

-h

Host to connect. Default "localhost".

-H

Ldap URL to connect to. Example, ldap://localhost:389. This takes precedence over -h and -p.

-i

Number of times inactivity allowed. Default 3 (30 seconds)

-I

Ignore errors (cf. -E). Default none.

-n

Number of threads. Default 10.

-N

Number of samples (10 seconds each). Default infinite.

-o

SASL Option.

-p

Server port. Default 389.

-P

Master port (to check replication). Default 16000.

-q

Quiet mode. See option -I.

-Q

Super quiet mode.

-r

Range’s low value.

-R

Range’s high value.

-s

Scope. May be base, subtree or one. Default subtree.

-S

Slave to check.

-t

LDAP operations timeout. Default 30 seconds.

-T

Total number of operations per thread. Default infinite.

-v

Verbose.

-V

Very verbose.

-w

Bind passwd. See -D.

-W

Wait between two operations. Default 0 seconds.

-Z

certfile. Turn on SSL and use certfile as the certificate DB

-e

Execution parameters:

add ldap_add() entries.
append entries to the genldif file.
ascii ascii 7-bits strings.
attreplace=name:mask replace attribute of existing entry.
attrlist=name:name:name specify list of attribs to retrieve
attrsonly=0|1 ldap_search() parameter. Set 0 to read values.
bindeach ldap_bind() for each operation.
bindonly only bind/unbind, no other operation is performed.
close will close() the fd, rather than ldap_unbind().
cltcertname=name name of the SSL client certificate
commoncounter all threads share the same counter.
counteach count each operation not only successful ones.
delete ldap_delete() entries.
dontsleeponserverdown will loop very fast if server down.

esearch exact search.
genldif=filename generates a ldif file
imagesdir=path specify where are the images.
incr incremental values.
inetOrgPerson objectclass=inetOrgPerson (-e add only).
keydbfile=file filename of the key database
keydbpin=password password for accessing the key database
noglobalstats don’t print periodical global statistics
noloop does not loop the incremental numbers.
object=filename build object from input file
person objectclass=person (-e add only).
random random filters, etc…
randomattrlist=name:name:name random select attrib in the list
randombase random base DN.
randombaselow=value low value for random generator.
randombasehigh=value high value for random generator.
randombinddn random bind DN.
randombinddnfromfile=fine retrieve bind DN & passwd from file
randombinddnlow=value low value for random generator.
randombinddnhigh=value high value for random generator.
rdn=attrname:value alternate for -f.
referral=on|off|rebind change referral behaviour.
scalab01 activates scalab01 scenario.
scalab01_cnxduration maximum connection duration.
scalab01_maxcnxnb modem pool size.
scalab01_wait sleep() between 2 attempts to connect.
smoothshutdown main thread waits till the worker threads exit.
string create random strings rather than random numbers.
v2 ldap v2.
