Hello,
So here's my situation, I need to setup two openldap instances that will be setup behind a load balancers and be redundant for each other. But i don't want any referrels' to another "master" instance to make the writes. I want both instances to be able to write and do the update without a referral and also have the same data across both instances. I am having trouble figuring out how to setup openldap to do that but from what I have read so far, syncrepl seems to be what I should use to get close to what I want. But I still need some assistance.

It doesn't haven't to be Multi-master but I do what the two instances to have the same data and be able to update requests to modify/add/delete entries without a refferal..
Sounds like sync-repl (for replication) and chain overlay (see 'man slap-chain') will do what you want.
But what happens when one of the servers is down, does slapo-chain store the values ?
