Concurrent updates

You can run concurrent updates by using multiple clients against a directory server to obtain better update performance.

The amount of performance improvement is limited to the speed of the system disk on the master, and in a replicated environment on the replica servers. In a replication environment, you might require to tune the number of replica threads (or consumer connections) in the master server configuration. Tuning of the number of replica threads is required if you observe an increased update rate on the master server.

IBM® Security Verify Directory, version 6.0 and later support multi-threaded replication, which improves the performance by supporting concurrent updates on replica servers.
