Hi all,
I've been dropped in a the LDAP deep end due to a retirement in the office. The documentation I have regarding dealing with the failure of a master tells me how to fail over by promoting one of the replicas and then, when the problem with the master has been sorted, to re-configure it as a replica.
My problem is with his following line When it is fully synchronised with the temporary master it can then be re-instated as the master.
How do I know when it has fully synchronised? I'm running openldap v2.4.16, but I don't seem to have syncrepl in my path.
Where should I be starting?
thanks,

Compare the contextCSN attribute of their root object: ldapsearch -x -h <yourserver> -b <yourbase> -s base contextCSN

Perfect! Exactly what I needed.

Not that you can trust a 2.4.16 version of OpenLDAP to tell you the truth. The next thing you should focus on is upgrading to a current version of OpenLDAP.
