If one is using refreshAndPersist with syncrepl, and an error occurs during a change, the contextCSN will not be updated. However, if a /new/ change comes in after that, that is successful, the CSN will be updated, and the missed change is lost. This can happen, for example, if the replica runs out of locks while making the change. It would be best then, if this happens, for the replica to drop out of persist mode. This is a good reason to set an interval with this mode.

This was fixed in HEAD in January 2006. So the fix is in all 2.4 releases, but never made it into RE23.
