    Federated Directories and User Lookup

     

    Hi

    Use Case: Using Federated Directories to lookup users across different user registries from Liberty using user lookup helper.

    Had one user registry taking 2 min to respond.

    a) Is there a way to tell ISAM Runtime to stop searching in remaining directories as soon as a user as been found ?

    b) And is there a way to set a maximum lookup time for individual federated directories ? In case one ldap registry in the list is extremely slow, it impacts lookups for all users trying to authenticate. Ideally, I would like to mitigate this by limiting to 10s Liberty thread idle time waiting for an answer from slow ldap registry.

    Thanks
