Hello all,

I am writing to ask for a confirmation on the steps that I followed to configure MirrorMode replication via cn=config

The step is the typical, 2 nodes where m1 is the first node and m2 is the second one.

1. start m1
2. create dit
3. add mirrormode_user

OK.

...

4. slaptest -f slapd.conf -F slapd.d chown -R ds-ldap.ds-ldap slapd.d

Why do this? Why not start m1 from a basic slapd.d and then add all above on the fly via cn=config?

Because I don't have a basic slapd.d, the dir is empty. The replica configuration are added via cn=config when I have converted my basic slapd.conf to slapd.d on both servers.

I don't think that I do something wrong here or stupid, what do you think?

...

5. stop m1 ;start m1
6. enable sync log
7. start m2
8. slaptest -f slapd.conf -F slapd.d chown -R ds-ldap.ds-ldap slapd.d
9. stop m2;start m2
10. enable sync log
11. add replication configuration on m1 [1]
12. add replication configuration on m2 [2]

See above.

Cheers, Pavlos
