netgroupbyname.cache.skip

Severity

ALERT

Description

This message occurs when a host is checked for its membership in a netgroup that contains a large number of members. In such cases, the netgroup.byname method produces an extended response and cannot be cached. Consequently, every lookup for hosts in that netgroup accesses the LDAP server.

Corrective Action

Consider configuring the netgroup.byhost database on the LDAP server and enabling netgroup.byhost on the LDAP client configuration of the storage system by using the "ldap client modify" command.

Syslog Message

netgroup.byname result for netgroup "%s" on SVM "%s" won't be cached since it's long.

Parameters

netgroupName (STRING): Name of the netgroup for which the result is longer.
SVM (STRING): SVM name associated with this operation.
