Hi,

I’m using OpenLDAP 2.4.6 and trying to use the mirrormode and syncrepl.

My setup has 2 LDAP nodes, one as master and other as slave through a VIP.

When the master goes down, the slave will become master and vice-versa.

At any point to keep both the LDAP in sync I want to use mirror mode and syncrepl and I’m using the following conf file.

database bdb

directory $MMAIL_VAR_DIR/ldap/ipu-mail-ldap

suffix "o=mereonmail"

rootdn "cn=admin,o=mereonmail"

rootpw secret

index objectClass,entryCSN,entryUUID pres,eq

index mail,cn eq,sub

overlay syncprov

syncprov-checkpoint 100 10

syncprov-sessionlog 100

syncrepl rid=1

provider=ldap://${MMAIL_LDAP_PEER_HOSTNAME}:$MMAIL_LDAP_PORT

bindmethod=simple

binddn="cn=admin,o=mereonmail"

credentials=ipunity

filter="(objectClass=*)"

searchbase="o=mereonmail"

schemachecking=on

type=refreshAndPersist

interval=00:00:00:01

retry="60 +"

mirrormode on

But with the above conf file an the both the nodes ( rid = 2 on the other node2), the replication does not seem to work.

Suppose, node1 (master) has 2 add entires, these entries does not come in the slave. Also when I restart the slave, the entries in the master LDAP is deleted.

Please let me know the correct conf for Mirrormode and sync repl. Also would like to know if OpenLDAP 2.4.6 supports mirrormode?

IThanks in advance for your help.
