IGroup.getMembers max Result = 1500?

Question

Hello,
I have a group from LDAP, with 1700 users in it. When using the Code
IGroupFactory gf2 = UMFactory.getGroupFactory();
IGroup grp2 = gf2.getGroup(GroupName);
Iterator gi2 = null;
gi2 = grp2.getMembers(false);
the Iterator contains only 1500 Members. The users are all in this Group, so "getMembers(true)" doesn't make any difference. I know, I can set the maximum result, when using a search filter, but I couldn't find anything about a limitation for getMembers.
Has anyone an idea?
Best regards,
Christian Schebesta

Hi,
I just lost a few hours on that same problem and found two places where this limit can be coming from:
1) UME Configuration:
In this [help file |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/91/646d498fd94142a37e90a3b848e45e/content.htm]check the UME property ume.admin.search_maxhits.
This property can be edited from the J2EE Visual Administrator, or from the Portal, in
System Admin --> System Config --> UME Config --> select User admin UI tab, then
under Search results and display tables, change the maximum number of search results and restart the server
2) AD Configuration:
In this AD [help file |http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315071]we can read the following:
MaxPageSize - This value controls the maximum number of objects that are returned in a single search result, independent of how large each returned object is. To perform a search where the result might exceed this number of objects, the client must specify the paged search control. This is to group the returned results in groups that are no larger than the MaxPageSize value. To summarize, MaxPageSize controls the number of objects that are returned in a single search result.
Hope this helps.
