Hi Ludovic,
How are things for you and your family?
I was thinking about you the other day as we just bought a new house in a small village called Thames Ditton (opposite Hampton Court Palace). I once took you the an old pub next to the river in the village and the house is just 100m from there.
We have more room now if you ever want to come and stay!
All the best, Richard

Ludo, thanks for all the blogs on OpenDJ. They are great
I am testing OpenAM and OpenDJ integration and there is one requirement where I am having multiple OpenDJ instances with different users in each instance. Can a single OpenAM instance be integrated with both the DJ instances to manage the SSO for users in both these repositories

Hi,
Yes OpenAM can be configured to use multiple User repositories with different users in each OpenDJ instance. The easiest way to achieve that is to use different realms for each user repository. But it’s also possible to achieve that with an authentication chain where a user is first searched in an OpenDJ instance, and then if not found, in the other one.

Hi Ludo,
I recently come across your blogs and they are really good. I was able to understand the internals.
We have one problem with OpenDJ 2.4.4 Java 1.6.0_24 in our production env. From last 4 month intermidialy both the LDAP servers stops responding. The error logs shows java.lang.OutOfMemoryError:
java option –xms 1GB -Xmx 2GB .

This looks like a bad tuning of OpenDJ. You may want to enable GC logs to have a better understanding of the memory use of OpenDJ.
Kind regards,
Ludovic.
