Replication Service Discovery Mechanism
A Replication Service Discovery Mechanism returns the set of directory servers participating in a replication topology.
The Replication Service Discovery Mechanism specifies the replication servers whose configuration is periodically read to discover available replicas.
Parent
The Replication Service Discovery Mechanism object inherits from Service Discovery Mechanism.
Replication Service Discovery Mechanism properties
You can use configuration expressions to set property values at startup time. For details, see Property value substitution.

bootstrap-replication-server
Synopsis |
The addresses of one or more replication servers within the topology which this server should connect to in order to discover the rest of the topology. |
Description |
Addresses must be specified using the administration port of the remote replication servers using the syntax "hostname:admin-port". When using an IPv6 address as the hostname, put brackets around the address as in "[IPv6Address]:admin-port". |
Default value |
None |
Allowed values |
A host name or an IP address followed by a ":" and a port number. Port number must be greater than 1 and less than 65535. |

discovery-interval
Synopsis |
Interval between two replication server configuration discovery queries. |
Description |
Specifies how frequently to query a replication server configuration in order to discover information about available directory server replicas. |
Default value |
60s |
Allowed values |
Uses duration syntax. Lower limit: 1 seconds. |

key-manager-provider
Synopsis |
Specifies the name of the key manager that should be used with this Replication Service Discovery Mechanism. |
Default value |
None |
Allowed values |
The name of an existing key-manager-provider. The referenced key manager provider must be enabled when the Replication Service Discovery Mechanism is enabled and configured to use SASL/External certificate authentication. |
Multi-valued |
No |
Required |
No |
Admin action required |
None Changes to this property take effect immediately, but only for subsequent attempts to access the key manager provider for associated client connections. |
Advanced |
No |

No |
primary-group-id
Synopsis |
Replication domain group ID of preferred directory server replicas. |
Description |
Directory server replicas with this replication domain group ID will be preferred over other directory server replicas. Secondary server replicas will only be used when all primary server replicas become unavailable. |
Default value |
All the server replicas will be treated the same. |
Allowed values |
A string. |

ssl-cert-nickname
Synopsis |
Specifies the nicknames (also called the aliases) of the keys or key pairs that the Replication Service Discovery Mechanism should use when performing SSL communication. |
Description |
The property can be used multiple times (referencing different nicknames) when server certificates with different public key algorithms are used in parallel (for example, RSA, DSA, and ECC-based algorithms). When a nickname refers to an asymmetric (public/private) key pair, the nickname for the public key certificate and associated private key entry must match exactly. A single nickname is used to retrieve both the public key and the private key. This is only applicable when the Replication Service Discovery Mechanism is configured to use SSL. |
Default value |
Let the server decide. |
Allowed values |
A string. |
Multi-valued |
Yes |
Required |
No |
Admin action required |
The object must be disabled and re-enabled for changes to take effect. |

ssl-cipher-suite
Synopsis |
Specifies the names of the SSL cipher suites that are allowed for use in SSL or TLS communication. |
Default value |
Uses the default set of SSL cipher suites provided by the server’s JVM. |
Allowed values |
A string. |
Multi-valued |
Yes |
Required |
No |
Admin action required |
None Changes to this property take effect immediately but only impact new SSL/TLS-based sessions created after the change. |

use-sasl-external
Synopsis |
Indicates whether the Replication Service Discovery Mechanism should use certificate based authentication when communicating with backend servers. |
Description |
If enabled, the Replication Service Discovery Mechanism will use mutual TLS when connecting to backend servers. Once the TLS handshake has completed, a SASL/External LDAP bind request will be sent in order to associate the TLS client certificate with an LDAP account on the remote backend server. A key manager provider containing the client certificate must be configured in order to use this feature. |
Default value |
false |
