Re: (ITS#6320) Replication Issues

[j@telepaths.org]

Yes, that is the first thing attempted (both via using LOCAL4 ->  
syslog and via running slapd via cmd line)

We see a brand-new server replicate all records (sids, csns, etc all  
look fine) without incident.  An existing server will receive, as I  
said, all of the changes ... at least for awhile.

Nothing in the sync activity looks out of the ordinary (and I have  
read quite a few posts to be able to discern what the items inside mean)

When a replication error occurs, often nothing at all is seen inside  
the logs (no error mesg,  no segfault, nothing) to indicate a failure  
has occurred.  Oftentimes, when SyncRepl fails to replicate, it is NOT  
during testing, so it is difficult for us to find out exactly WHEN the  
error occurred, as it could have happened at any point within the past  
24 hrs, and up to a week ago.

I can try to replicate this error deliberately. Unfortunately it is  
very difficult to make happen at-will.  My concern is that someone  
will try to close this ticket before I have witnessed the event.
