The usable arguments in optCtrl vary according to which optimizer you have 
chosen:

glmer(cbind(incidence, size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),
   family = binomial, data = cbpp,
   control=glmerControl(optimizer="Nelder_Mead",
                        optCtrl=list(FtolAbs = 1e-2, iprint=1),
                        boundary.tol = 1e-2))
load(optimx)
glmer(cbind(incidence, size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),
   family = binomial, data = cbpp,
   control=glmerControl(optimizer="optimx",
                        optCtrl=list(method="nlminb", trace=1, kkt=FALSE),
                        boundary.tol = 1e-2))
