backendstat

backendstat — gather OpenDJ backend debugging information

Synopsis

backendstat {subcommand} {options}

Description

This utility can be used to debug a backend.

Options

The backendstat command takes the following options:

-V | --version

Display Directory Server version information. Default: false

-H | --help

Display this usage information. Default: false

Subcommands

The backendstat command supports the following subcommands:

backendstat dump-index

backendstat dump-index {options}

Dump records from an index, decoding keys and values. Depending on index size, this subcommand can generate lots of output.

Options

In addition to the global backendstat options, the backendstat dump-index subcommand takes the following options:

-b | --baseDn {baseDN}

The base DN within the backend.

-i | --indexName {indexName}

The name of the index.

-k | --minKeyValue {minKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered after the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

-K | --maxKeyValue {maxKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered before the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

-n | --backendId {backendName}

The backend ID of the backend.

-p | --skipDecode

Do not try to decode backend data to their appropriate types. Default: false

-q | --statsOnly

Do not display backend data, just statistics. Default: false

-s | --minDataSize {minDataSize}

Only show records whose data is no smaller than the provided value. Default: -1

-S | --maxDataSize {maxDataSize}

Only show records whose data is no larger than the provided value. Default: -1

-x | --minHexKeyValue {minKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered after the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

-X | --maxHexKeyValue {maxKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered before the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

backendstat dump-raw-db

backendstat dump-raw-db {options}

Dump the raw records in hexadecimal format for a low-level database within the pluggable backend’s storage engine. Depending on index size, this subcommand can generate lots of output.

Options

In addition to the global backendstat options, the backendstat dump-raw-db subcommand takes the following options:

-d | --dbName {databaseName}

The raw database name.

-k | --minKeyValue {minKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered after the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

-K | --maxKeyValue {maxKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered before the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

-l | --singleLine

Write hexadecimal data on a single line instead of pretty format. Default: false

-n | --backendId {backendName}

The backend ID of the backend.

-q | --statsOnly

Do not display backend data, just statistics. Default: false

-s | --minDataSize {minDataSize}

Only show records whose data is no smaller than the provided value. Default: -1

-S | --maxDataSize {maxDataSize}

Only show records whose data is no larger than the provided value. Default: -1

-x | --minHexKeyValue {minKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered after the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

-X | --maxHexKeyValue {maxKeyValue}

Only show records with keys that should be ordered before the provided value using the comparator for the database container.

backendstat list-backends

backendstat list-backends

List the pluggable backends.

backendstat list-base-dns

backendstat list-base-dns {options}

List the base DNs in a backend.

Options

In addition to the global backendstat options, the backendstat list-base-dns subcommand takes the following options:

-n | --backendId {backendName}

The backend ID of the backend.

backendstat list-indexes

backendstat list-indexes {options}

List the indexes associated with a pluggable backend. This subcommand may take a long time to complete depending on the size of the backend.

Options

In addition to the global backendstat options, the backendstat list-indexes subcommand takes the following options:

-b | --baseDn {baseDN}

The base DN within the backend.

-n | --backendId {backendName}

The backend ID of the backend.

backendstat list-raw-dbs

backendstat list-raw-dbs {options}

List the low-level databases within a pluggable backend’s storage engine. This subcommand may take a long time to complete depending on the size of the backend.

Options

In addition to the global backendstat options, the backendstat list-raw-dbs subcommand takes the following options:

-n | --backendId {backendName}

The backend ID of the backend.

-u | --useSiUnits

Uses SI Units for printing sizes. Default: false

backendstat show-index-status

backendstat show-index-status {options}

Shows the status of indexes for a backend base DN. This subcommand can take a long time to complete, as it reads all indexes for all backends.

When you run the show-index-status subcommand, the result is a table, followed by a "Total", which is the total number of indexes, followed by a list of indexes with "Over index-entry-limit keys" to show the values for which the number of entries exceeded the index entry limit.

The table has the following columns:

(No label)

If the index needs rebuilding, its row starts with ! . Otherwise, its row starts with a space.

Index Name

Name of the index, where the format depends on the index. For example, givenName.caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch:6 :

  • Attribute indexes: attr.type . type

  • Big indexes: attr.type .big. type

  • VLV indexes: vlv. type

Secure

+ means confidentiality is enabled for the index. - means confidentiality is disabled.

Size

The size on disk.

Key Count

Number of indexed keys. Use the backendstat dump-tree command to see how many entry IDs correspond to each key.

Over

Number of keys for which there are too many values to maintain an index, based on the index-entry-limit . This is recorded as - for VLV indexes. In other words, with the default index entry limit of 4000, if every user in your large directory has an email address ending in @example.com , and a substring index with default substring length of 6 is maintained for mail , then the directory server does not maintain indexes for keys corresponding to substrings in @example.com . As a result, an LDAP search with the filter "(mail=*@example.com)" becomes an unindexed search even though a substring index exists for the mail attribute. By default, the directory server does not allow unindexed searches except by privileged users. This is usually exactly the behavior you want in order to prevent client applications from sending searches that return every user in the directory for example. Clients should refine their search filters instead.

Entry Limit

The index-entry-limit setting that applies to this index. Default: 4000

Mean

Average number of values per key for this index.

Median

Median number of values per key for this index.

80th, 95th, 99th

Percentage of keys having at most the specified number of values. This is a measure of how full the entry ID lists are.

Options

In addition to the global backendstat options, the backendstat show-index-status subcommand takes the following options:

-b | --baseDn {baseDN}

The base DN within the backend.

-n | --backendId {backendName}

The backend ID of the backend.

Exit codes

0

The command completed successfully.

> 0

An error occurred.
