Description |
Measurement
Unit |
Interpretation |
| Cache_hit_ratio |
The ratio of the number of entry cache tries to successful entry cache lookups
|
Percent
|
This number is based on the total lookups and hits since the last measurement period of the test. The closer this value is to 100% the better. Whenever a search operation attempts to find an entry that is not resident in the entry cache, the directory server has to perform a disk access to obtain the entry. Thus, as this ratio drops towards zero, the number of disk accesses increases and directory server search performance drops.

| Entries_present |
The number of directory entries currently resident in the entry cache
