Apologies for top posting - blackberry.
Short term fix: Pick a server, take it offline (stop slapd). Clear it's database - be careful to not delete any db config files. Start it back up. If this happens again, then you'll want to up logging, etc. There's plenty of info on how to trouble shoot openldap. Note: I'm a sysadmin, not a systems engineer. It's possible the actual reason this broke is clear in your current logs, but not to me. - chris Chris Jacobs, Systems Administrator, Technology Services Group Apollo Group | Apollo Marketing and Product Development?? |??

Below is the relevant portion of the slapd.conf: server1 ---------- syncrepl rid=002 provider=ldaps://server2 type=refreshAndPersist retry="5 5 300 +" searchbase="o=ourdomain.ca" attrs="*,+" bindmethod=simple binddn="cn=Replication Manager,o=ubc.ca" credentials=something mirrormode TRUE overlay syncprov syncprov-checkpoint 100 10 server2 ---------- syncrepl rid=001 provider=ldaps://server1 type=refreshAndPersist retry="5 5 300 +" searchbase="o=ourdomain.ca" attrs="*,+" bindmethod=simple binddn="cn=Replication Manager,o=ubc.ca" credentials=something mirrormode TRUE overlay syncprov syncprov-checkpoint 100 10 The servers have their clocks synchronized using ntp. Below is the output of ntpq: server1 ---------- ntpq> peer remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== +hub.ubc.ca 93.113.2.250 3 u 594 1024 377 1.252 1.110 1.520 *dns3.ubc.ca 192.53.103.108 2 u 92 1024 377 1.648 2.670 0.157 server2 ---------- ntpq> peer remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== +hub.ubc.ca 93.113.2.250 3 u 332 1024 377 0.706 3.487 0.900 *dns3.ubc.ca 192.53.103.108 2 u 325 1024 377 1.631 3.668 0.022 As far as I can tell the clocks appear to be in sync with each other, so hopefully this is not a cause of the replication issues I am having. The problem is that the servers are now refusing to synchronize with each other (replication was working before) but not it does not. The log files on the servers are filled with entries like: server1 ---------- Jul 29 13:48:54 ldapdev1 slapd[11989]: do_syncrep2: rid=002 LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT Jul 29 13:48:54 ldapdev1 slapd[11989]: do_syncrep2: rid=002 LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT (53) Server is unwilling to perform Jul 29 13:48:54 ldapdev1 slapd[11989]: do_syncrep2: rid=002 (53) Server is unwilling to perform Jul 29 13:48:57 ldapdev1 slapd[11989]: conn=1081 op=1 SRCH base="o=ubc.ca" scope=2 deref=0 filter="(objectClass=*)" Jul 29 13:48:57 ldapdev1 slapd[11989]: conn=1081 op=1 SRCH attr=* + Jul 29 13:48:57 ldapdev1 slapd[11989]: conn=1081 op=1 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=53 nentries=0 text=consumer state is newer than provider! server2 ---------- Jul 29 13:50:52 ldapdev2 slapd[7996]: do_syncrep2: rid=001 LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT Jul 29 13:50:52 ldapdev2 slapd[7996]: do_syncrep2: rid=001 LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT (53) Server is unwilling to perform Jul 29 13:50:52 ldapdev2 slapd[7996]: do_syncrep2: rid=001 (53) Server is unwilling to perform Jul 29 13:50:55 ldapdev2 slapd[7996]: conn=1102 op=1 SRCH base="o=ubc.ca" scope=2 deref=0 filter="(objectClass=*)" Jul 29 13:50:55 ldapdev2 slapd[7996]: conn=1102 op=1 SRCH attr=* + Jul 29 13:50:55 ldapdev2 slapd[7996]: conn=1102 op=1 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=53 nentries=0 text=consumer state is newer than provider! So it is looking like the ContextCSN cookies on both servers are out of sync. Digging further into this, I did a search for the ContextCSN values on both servers and got the following
values: server1 ---------- 20110729165747.697237Z#000000#001#000000;20110726161604.535176Z#000000#002#000000 server2 ---------- 20110728220449.050499Z#000000#001#000000;20110728223211.933995Z#000000#002#000000 So my question is: how does one get the server synchronization cookies back into sync and ensure that replication is restarted succesfully again? As of now, all I see is the log files filling up with messages as shown above and the sync cookies not being updated. Any help or pointers are appreciated.
