netgroup.ldap.byhost.missing

Severity: INFORMATIONAL
Description: This message occurs when netgroup.byhost is disabled in the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) client configuration on the storage system, and LDAP is configured as an ns-switch source for the Vserver. Enabling netgroup.byhost enables mount operations to succeed faster when the netgroup size is large.
Corrective Action: Consider configuring the netgroup.byhost database on the LDAP server and enabling netgroup.byhost on the LDAP client configuration on the storage system by using the "ldap client modify" command.
Syslog Message: LDAP client config has netgroup.byhost disabled for Vserver "%s" during lookup for netgroup "%s".
Parameters: vserver (STRING): Name of the Vserver on which the problem is occurring.
netgroup (STRING): Name of the netgroup for the lookup request.

Severity: ERROR
Description: This message occurs when a netgroup lookup request finds that Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is specified as a ns-switch source, but LDAP is not configured for the Vserver. Netgroup lookups using LDAP will not function.
Corrective Action: Check the ns-switch sources configured for the netgroup database using "vserver services name-service ns-switch show" and the LDAP configuration for the Vserver using "ldap show" and "ldap client show". Either remove LDAP as a ns-switch source, or configure LDAP.
Syslog Message: LDAP configuration issues found for Vserver "%s" during lookup for netgroup "%s".
Parameters: vserver (STRING): Name of the Vserver on which the problem is occurring.
netgroup (STRING): Name of the netgroup for the lookup request.
