Performs
a search on the LDAP server and returns the results which can be
saved as process data.
The maximum number of records that the query can return is controlled
by the LDAP server. For example, the default configuration of Microsoft
Active Directory limits the number of records returned in a result
to 1000. If a query is performed on this LDAP server, and more than
1000 records match the query, the result set includes only 1000
records.
Note:
You must configure the LDAP service properties
before using the operations of the LDAP service. (See
LDAP service configuration
.)
