Thank you, Quanah for the clear description.

I'm not sure if the problem is in syncprov or accesslog (the two overlays touched by the patch for ITS 8281). I do believe that the patch for ITS 8281 is the cause (since the problem goes away if that patch is removed).

How can I help at this point?

Hi Frank,

I would continue with the documentation update noting that it is recommended to run the syncprov overlay on replicas, so that they manage their CSN status based off updated received, rather than syncprov broadcasts. It's really the correct way to configure a replica, regardless of this bug. ;)

I definitely wouldn't revert anything related to ITS8281, given that it was fixing some serious issues, whereas this issue, while annoying, doesn't actually cause harm, and has a workaround that lines up with best practices anyway.
