When a consumer slapd is started, if the provider slapd has had only Add operations performed while the consumer slapd was down, the provider slapd sends the consumer slapd the entryUUIDs of all records in the provider database. Note: this is not a list of all records that have been added/changed/deleted since the previous synchronization based on the consumer's contextCSN, it is a list of all records in the LDAP database (for some of our customers, this is 10,000,000 entryUUIDs that are returned to the consumer slapd.)
The scenario to reproduce this problem is: 1. Start provider slapd 2. Start consumer slapd 3. Ensure that provider contextCSN matches consumer contextCSN 4. Shutdown consumer slapd 5. Add records to provider slapd (1 record is sufficient to create the problem) 6. Start consumer slapd with debug turned on (so the messages being sent can be viewed). The consumer slapd receives 1 to N LDAP_RES_INTERMEDIATE SYNC_ID_SETs (message type = 121) containing the entryUUIDs of the records in the provider's database, followed by a LDAP_RES_SEARCH_ENTRY, LDAP_SYNC_ADD (message type = 100) message for each record added to the provider, then finally a LDAP_RES_INTERMEDIATE, REFRESH_PRESENT message (message type = 121) message containing the provider's sync cookie.
I am running OpenLDAP 2.4.21 with Berkeley 4.6.21 (with all patches) on Fedora 12. Running sync replication in RefreshAndPersist mode.
Note: if at least 1 Modify or Delete operation is performed against the provider slapd while the consumer slapd is down, when the consumer slapd is started, the provider slapd does NOT send the Sync ID sets containing the entryUUIDs of all records in the provider database.
