!!! Overview [1]
[{$pagename}] controls the maximum number of objects that are returned in a single search result, independent of how large each returned object is. 


[{$pagename}] is part of the [LDAP policy in Active Directory] that is revealed in the [supportedLDAPPolicies] attribute in the [RootDSE].

[{$pagename}] in [Windows Server 2008] and [Windows Server 2008 R2] has a Hardcoded limit of 20,000 which overrides the [LDAP policy in Active Directory] setting__ when the [policy] value should be higher__.

!! Overcoming [{$pagename}]
[{$pagename}] when exceeded will result in the [LDAP Result Code] [LDAP_ADMINLIMIT_EXCEEDED] from the [SearchRequest]. [Microsoft]s recommendation is to use the [Simple Paged Results Control]


!! Changing the [MaxPageSize] Value 
The value is stored in the [LDAP policy in Active Directory]. You can change the value with [Ntdsutil.exe] 

The value is "hardcoded" in 2008/2008 R2. However the [dSHeuristic] attribute could be set to control the value.[3]

!! Overcoming the [MaxPageSize] Value 
Using the [Simple Paged Results Control] can help with the retrieval of entries beyond the [{$pagename}] value.
