Re: replica from slave to master still did't work in 2.0.7 ??

[David Young <dyoung@nettonettech.com>]

There is no slave to master replication, and I don't see any described in
the Admin Guide. Where do you see that?

If your client tries to update the slave, the slave should send back a
referral to the master. It is then up to the client to bind to the master
and make the update. If you are writing a client, you need to implement this
functionality to handle referrals.

If you are thinking that when you send an update to the slave, the slave
forwards the update to the master or somehow updates the master on your
client's behalf, that is incorrect.

hi:
    I  refer the /openldap-2.0.7/tests/data  and
/openldap-2.0.7/tests/scripts , I find that the replica test in the OpenLDAP
2.0.7 is only from the master to the slave , there did not have a slave to
master test at all , and I read the replica log file
/openldap-2.0.7/tests/test-repl/replica/slurpd.replog , I find all the test
is from the master:9009 to the slave:9010, so I think the slave to master
replica which described in the OpenLDAP 2.0 Admin Guide section 3 is not
implemented at now , is this is true ???
 
thanks for any suggest !!
