Thanks for pointing to ldapsearch utility as this not mentioned in
documentation. I've searched "persistent" in all PDFs including ds71cli
without success and I've even read through ldapsearch -H but didn't
realize that PS means Persistent Search :)
I've put together few information about persistent searching and put it
into Howto in wiki.
