Issue/Introduction

Description:

In Symantec Directory, there has been an enhancement to the DSA that allows you to determine the total number of entries the DSA has at any given time.

Environment

Release:
Component: ETRDIR

Resolution

To check the total number of entries, you will need to telnet to the "console" port of the DSA, and enter the DXconsole command "get cache;".

Example:

telnet localhost <console_port>

dsa> get cache;
