ADAM Changing Page (Search) Limit

Ever wanted to reduce or increase the AD/AM search limit (page size)? For instance you are doing a COREid upgrade and part way through the directory update portion it fails with a directory error. It was not able to extract all of the COREid meta data because the search limit was exceeded. The solution is to ramp up the page size in AD/AM even if it is just for the upgrade.
