eudc: Multi-server Queries
3.6 Multi-server Queries
========================
When using inline query expansion (Inline Query Expansion), EUDC
can try to query successively a sequence of directory servers until one
of them successfully finds a match for the query.
-- Variable: eudc-inline-expansion-servers
This variable controls which servers are tried and in which order
when trying to perform an inline query. Possible values are:
‘current-server’
Only the current directory server is tried
‘hotlist’
The servers in the hotlist are tried in order until one finds
a match for the query or ‘eudc-max-servers-to-query’ is
reached
‘server-then-hotlist’
The current server then the servers in the hotlist are tried
in the order they appear in the hotlist until one of them
finds a match or ‘eudc-max-servers-to-query’ is reached. This
is the default.
-- Variable: eudc-max-servers-to-query
This variable indicates the maximum number of servers to query when
performing a multi-server query. The default, ‘nil’, indicates
that all available servers should be tried.
