Re: Problems with 4-way multi-master



Ok, that's embarrassing. I forgot the last couple lines of each of the slapd.confs. Just pretend each of the four ends with the following lines after all the syncrepl rids have been configured:

mirrormode TRUE
overlay syncprov
syncprov-checkpoint 50 10
syncprov-sessionlog 100

I've been testing a 4-way multi-master setup using OpenLDAP 2.4.25 and I'm having some sporadic problems with it that I'm having difficulty diagnosing..

I have four identical RHEL 4.9 machines on the same switch (NTP syncronized to same stratum 2 servers):
 dual-core Xeon 5110 1.60GHz
 8GB RAM
 100Mb full-duplex NIC
 OpenLDAP 2.4.25, BDB 4.8.30, OpenSSL 1.0.0d, Cyrus SASL 2.1.23 (using no tls/ssl at this time)

I start the slapds with '-d conns,sync' then commence. I ldapadd 1000 DNs to one of the servers. After all the syncing has stopped I then compare the slapd contents against each other looking for differences. Occasionally there are as much as a couple hundred DNs missing from one or more of the instances. When that happens I've noticed that the mmaster with less DNs has lost its consumer connection to a mmaster provider (confirmed using lsof and netstat) and will never attempt a re-connect, but the provider still shows the connection (using lsof and netstat). When the consumer gets in this state I can connect to its cn=config and cn=monitor backends (and browse them) but when I try to connect to its multi-master'd backend the connection attempt just hangs. It's almost like the connect succeeds but the client is waiting for a response from the server (and never gets it). Also, the consumer slapd will not respond to a 'kill -TERM' at this time and must be 'kill -KILL'd. The same thing occurs sometimes when I delete the entire tree.

I've been trying to catch logging information that might help but so far nothing's jumping out at me. While I continue to try to reproduce and parse through logfiles maybe someone can look at my slapd.confs below and see if I might have configured something wrong (I'm listing the original slapd.conf files below, but I've used slaptest to convert them to slapd.d/cn=config.ldif format):
