+Database Link Limits and Controls
+</p>
+
+<p class="text">
+<a name="29185"> </a>
+Use the Limits and Controls tab to override the defaults set in Default Creation Parameters tab of the Database link Settings node. You can customize how the database link returns data to client applications and manages connection, and you can configure cascading chaining (in which one database link connects to another).
+</p>
+<p class="text">
+<a name="29186"> </a>
+<b>Control Client Return. </b>These options help you specify how the database link responds to client application requests.
+</p>
+<ul>
+
+<li>
+<b>Return referral on scoped search.</b> Select this option to return referrals to client applications in response to scoped searches. Choosing to return referrals optimizes directory server performance, as referrals are more efficient than searching for data in remote databases.

+
+<li>
+<b>Size limit X entries.</b> Specifies the number of entries the database link returns in response to a search request. The default size limit is 2000 entries. The range is from -1 (no limit) to 2147483647.
+<a name="29188"> </a>
+<img src="/manual/en/slapd/help/pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<b>Time limit X seconds.</b> Specifies the search time limit for the database link. After the time limit has passed, the connection is timed out. The default value is 3600 seconds. The value range is -1 (for no limit) to 2147483647.

+<b>Maximum hops.</b> Specifies the number of hops, or times a database link contacts another, allowed. When one database link connects to another, this count decrements. Each subsequent database link contacted further decrements the count. If a server receives a count of 0 it determines that a loop has been detected and notifies the client application.

+<b>Connection Management.</b> Use these options to configure the pool of connections maintained by the database link with the remote server.
+</p>
+<ul>
+

+<b>Maximum TCP connection(s).</b> Maximum number of TCP connections the database link establishes with the remote server. The default value is 3 connections. The value range is 0 to 50.

+<b>Connection life (sec).</b> You can keep connections between the database link and the remote database open for an unspecified time, or you can close them after a specific period. It is faster to keep the connections open, but it uses more resources. The range is from 0 (no limit) to 2147483647 seconds.
