I feel this is somewhat contradictory with the admin guide:
"The content of the syncrepl replica is defined using a search
specification as its result set. The consumer slapd will send search
requests to the provider slapd according to the search specification.
The search specification
includessearchbase,scope,filter,attrs,attrsonly,sizelimit,
andtimelimitparameters as in the normal search specification.
Thesearchbaseparameter has no default value and must always be
specified. Thescopedefaults tosub, thefilterdefaults
to(objectclass=*),attrsdefaults to"*,+"to replicate all user and
operational attributes, andattrsonlyis unset by default.
Bothsizelimitandtimelimitdefault to "unlimited", and only positive
integers or "unlimited" may be specified."
It specifies that the sizelimit and timelimit defaults to unlimited.
I understand that you are pointing out a hard limit on the provider
side so it doesn't matter that the search is unlimited from the
consumer's side, it's just a first glance it seems that the search
will be unlimited.
Either way, I change both provider and consumer databases to
unlimited and I'm still not getting all the database entries from my
provider.
[...]
It is a bit more complicated than that.
syncrepl is a client operation, which requires ldap client
configuration, specified in ldap.conf(5).
The sizelimit and timelimit, configuration parts defined in
slapd.conf(5), are global configuration parameters.
There is a database specific 'limits' parameter, which binds the
defined operation limitation to a Distinguished Name.
You realy should read that manual pages slapd.conf(5) and
slapd-config(5) on databasse limits and syncrepl limits.
