Hi Ondřej,

 

My understanding was a sessionlog was required to record delete events, to efficiently generate a Delete phase? The server has been configured with `olcSpSessionlog: 10000` since long before I inherited it, and the consumer seems to be processing the transmitted Delete phase as expected.

The question was, is there a reason why you also configure a sessionlog
when to me it seems you're saying you'd be perfectly happy without
(ignoring any deletes)?
