Re: syncrepl consumer with several providers, is it working?

[LALOT Dominique <dom.lalot@gmail.com>]

We have to put a serverid on each provider as global configuration, then on the consumer side, should we do something?
Don't know exactly how to configure server id.
Anyway, we upgraded all our servers to 2.4.23 and got the same problems, but your serverid hint makes sense.

Thanks in advance

Just a thought here: you are replicating from multiple
servers into a single database. Does every server have a
different serverID configured? This is not the same as the
syncrepl rid. If two servers are reporting the same serverID
it could mess up the replication protocol because the
entryCSN and contectCSN values include the ID.

I would certainly advise updating your older servers: 2.4.11
has known bugs in this area.
