Hi,

openldap-stack-ha was deployed as stateful set of 4 on multi region Kubernetes ( micro K8s ) cluster with 2 nodes in each region with multi master configuration. Application connections to LDAP are managed through kubernetes service. Multiple issues are noticed with this setup and would like to seek some guidance and feedback.

1. Frequent replication issues : For monitoring, script is being executed every 1 hour to check the replication status using check_syncrepl_extended command between all the providers and consumers. Is there any better to monitor the replication lag ? To recover from this issue, the pods are being recycled on the provider host which is out of sync.

Is there any guidance of deploying LDAP in multi region ? Is multi master recommended in production environment for resiliency and performance?

2. Bulk upload : Is there any guidance on doing bulk upload into LDAP in this current setup?

Thanks, Vithal
