How do you guarantee consistency in the database on N-way Multi-Master replication where any member can accept write operations?
AFAIK openldap can't do "true" write anywhere. the configuration is one "true" master on which writes are happening, the remaining N-1 masters just issue the referrals to the "true" master which can optionally be server side followed with slapo-chain making writes on the N-1 "non-true" masters transparent to the clients.
