Quanah;

A question about the "entryCSN" attributes, the three zeros (entryCSN:= 20120308173545.066786Z#000000#000#000000) between the #-marks correspond to the Server ID, correct? If they do, why are some "000" and others "001" when I only have one server?

Thank you for your assistance on getting me over the syncrepl wall.

I noticed in the 2.4 Admin Guide that configuring the monitor database for cn=config has not been published yet; and, there isn't a lot online, period, about it. The manpages are not overly helpful either from cn=config is concerned.

I am seeing this: "bdb_monitor_db_open: monitoring disabled; configure monitor database to enable"

on both the Provider and Consumer.

Can you recommend something, relevant to cn=config monitor setup?

Thanks again for your help.

Saw a post of yours from a while back, so I backed up the consumer's dbase and moved the directory out of the way, then ran slapadd and brought slapd up on the consumer.

Yes, when you go to reload a server, you must delete the existing DB.

Things look more in-sync with each other than they did.

Question: I noticed that there are seven "reqStart" entries in the cn=accesslog on the Provider machine. They were there when I was testing and beating my head against the wall. Should they be deleted manually since I used slapcat/slapadd? Or does it matter?

It doesn't matter. The point of syncrepl is it is intelligent enough to ignore data it's already replicated.
