It is hard to tell when the syncrepl task has exited. The attached patch adds logging of syncrepl hard and soft failures.
Using this patch, it is easier to spot unfortunate conditions where recoverable failures are treated as hard failures, for example the third line below shows that a (temporarily) unavailable kerberos credential cache causes a hard failure: GSSAPI Error: Miscellaneous failure (No credentials cache found) do_syncrep1: rid 123 ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s failed (-2) do_syncrepl: rid 123 hard failure
Looks like a good idea, thanks. I think I'd just change the messages to "giving up" or "quitting", and "retrying".
That final else clause in your patch should never occur, there is no 3rd outcome.
Hmm, no attachment because the FTP server returns: 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for 'openldap-2.3.32-syncrepl-log-failure.patch'. ## 452 Error writing file: No space left on device. 1104 bytes sent in 0.00011 seconds (1e+04 Kbytes/s)
