So mirror mode is really defined by the load balancer in front? I guess this is a bit confusing in the documentation because multi-master has a more complex configuration.
As of right now then we are really using multi-master with two servers and the very simple example configuration that's laid out under mirror mode at
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html. But the plan is to upgrade and put load balancing in front. And then we want to use a couple of slaves with limited directories in front of those for constant lookups from services like mail. We are trying to get he benefits of load balancing for heavy writing without having one point of failure for critical services that need a lot of lookups but no writes.
I'm testing a setup with the load balancer right now. Can schema changes in cn=config be sent to the the load balancer and slaves as well?
