Dear OpenLDAP Administrators, Not sure if you get time to look into this issue yet.
This issue only happens when power-off/power cut-off one of the mirror servers, and could be probably prevented by “sending
heart beat” to verify the established connections. Thanks for your time looking at this email thread and your effort

Dear OpenLDAP Administrators, Recently we come across an OpenLDAP replication issue with OpenLDAP Mirror Mode.
After configuring MIRROR-A and MIRROR-B in mirror mode with below configuration, it worked
pretty well for a long period. But an issue comes up after MIRROR-A reboot, MIRROR-B could not get modification from MIRROR-A
any more. After investigating the issue we find the original socket on MIRROR-B (consumer) is not reconnected. ==================================== ## MIRROR-A ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## ---------------------------------------------------------------------- serverID 1
## Consumer syncrepl rid=001 provider=ldap://10.207.131.1:389 bindmethod=simple binddn="uid=PrivDirUsr,o=CSOSSO" credentials=mypassword searchbase="o=CSOSSO" schemachecking=on type=refreshAndPersist interval=00:00:01:00 retry="10 +" mirrormode on ## MIRROR-A ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## ---------------------------------------------------------------------- serverID 2
## Consumer syncrepl rid=001 provider=ldap://10.207.130.1:389 bindmethod=simple binddn="uid=PrivDirUsr,o=CSOSSO" credentials=mypassword searchbase="o=CSOSSO" schemachecking=on type=refreshAndPersist interval=00:00:01:00 retry="10 +" mirrormode on Below is the socket information after MIRROR-A reboot, ==================================== ## MIRROR-A ---------------------------------------------------------------------- # lsof -i :389 | grep ldap | grep -v sshd | grep -v localhost

(ESTABLISHED) I would greatly apreicate if you could provide some suggestions/comments upon this or improve OpenLDAP functionality to avoid this. For me I think this is normal TCP server down scenario, but probably you people could prohibit this from happening in below two methods? 1. Let OpenLDAP send mutual heart beat so that client knows when server is dead. 2. Let OpenLDAP send message to all its client when it is dying (e.g. receiving SIGTERM) // this does not work when
