Re: ldap replication getting lost

[Ashok Kumar Shah <ashok.shah@flipkart.com>]

I have similar problem where replication seems to be stuck. 

Replication lags keeps on growing continuously and the only solution that works is restarting slave ldap server.

The below message keeps popping up. 

slap_client_connect: URI=ldaps://ldap.xxxxx.com DN="cn=admin,dc=xxxxxx,dc=com" ldap_sasl_bind_s failed (-1)

do_syncrepl: rid=011 rc -1 retrying

Openldap Version: 2.4.23

Thanks,

Ashok

Check with your firewall administrator about the idle session timeout.
Firewalls will always terminate idle sessions at one point.

If that is the case I would enable tcp keepalives that there is always a little traffic.
