Description
L_DUMPING: PTR(6:0xffac150): end_req (1315): Mount points failures [M.point:ou=users,dc=domain,dc=local Error:1 Msg:Backend failed in middle of search result (search not retried)]L_WARNING: PTR(6:0xffac150): end_req (1321): One or more mount point searches returned an error. Returning PARTIAL_RESULT error.
The client application could be mis-interpreting this PARTIAL_RESULT error causing the virtual tree to become unresponsive.If only a sub-search, a branch of the VT, generates an error. In the sub-search to the Datasource with all their servers DOWN, the result is a Backend Failed error which is propagated as a PARTIAL_RESULT error: -
Resolution
Disable Partial ResultsDisable Partial Results When a search involves several mountpoints and one of them returns an error, the Virtual Tree returns "Partial Results" as final error code, to state that the search was not fully completed. This however confuses some applications into thinking that the operation totally failed. By selecting this option, Virtual Tree will return a normal error code instead (Success / No Such Object).WORKAROUND
In the 'Virtual Tree' tab of the listener, check the 'Disable Partial Results'.
