ITS will continue to monitor and tune the service as needed however it is expected that the new Directory Servers will greatly out perform the old version. The new version uses a much more robust, multithreaded replication model and tests have shown the new servers performed orders of magnitude better with proper tuning. This is expected to resolve the user and group account information lookup problem with the CIFS service.]]> Tue, 24 Nov 2009 17:34:39 EST <![CDATA[Resolved: Network Issue delays LDAP upgrade, causes other issues]]> http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1304
