How the server determine that a > database is in shadow context or not ? Is there a cache somewhere ? I answer to myself ! The simple fact to have 'olcMirrorMode' attribute in database entry causes this behaviour. If the value is true, it causes error since DB is not yet in shadow context. If the value is false, the DB enters in SLAP_DBFLAG_SINGLE_SHADOW This feature seems strange to me but nevertheless deleting the attribute solves the problem. Another strange feature is that deleting 'olcSyncRepl' attribute dynamically without deleting 'olcMirrorMode' remove shadow context. But at the next restart, we fall in the case above.
