I'm trying to stabilize our openldap server farm before going live and am finding that despite the contextCSN matching between providers and replicas, the actual content of the server is getting out of sync. This is most prominent when we are testing our population routine and we need to remove all accounts before starting. right now it's only about 22000 entries (It will get much larger).
During the mass delete we got the following sprinkled throughout the logs on all machines: ==== Nov 15 15:47:16 idm-prod-ldap-2 slapd[33070]: bdb(dc=domain,dc=name): previous transaction deadlock return not resolved
Wow. I've never seen this error message before. What version of OpenLDAP and BerkeleyDB are you using?
FreeBSD 8.2 with openldap 2.4.26, however like I mentioned before, right now I think we are squeezing ram right now Part of this deployment was to discover how much ram we needed on the virtual machine and it was started pretty low.
Oh and we are using bdb 4.6 right now (forgot to answer that)
Running out of memory would cause an obvious error message ("no memory") so that's not likely to be the problem here. Might be worth upgrading to at least BDB 4.8, but again, never having seen BDB spit out that error before, that's just a guess.
