Hi all,
I have a question, if there is way that slapd automatically starts syncreplication after it was added to OLC.
When installing a fresh slapd with olc config, it starts up with a bootstrap-olc. In the following step the bootstrap process (ansible) reconfigures mostly everything in cn=config, adding globals, ALCs, schema and the main MDB.
As soon as the MDB database gets its syncrepl config, the log states it was successful:
Config: ** successfully added syncrepl rid=001 "ldaps://PROVIDER01.HOST" Config: ** successfully added syncrepl rid=002 "ldaps://PROVIDER02.HOST"But after that the connections to the providers are not established. Even after waiting way longer then the configured timeout:
They should get scheduled straight away. If you enable 'sync' level logging, what do the logs say about what's happening?
