Replication Synchronization Provider

The Replication Synchronization Provider provides multi-master replication of data across multiple directory server instances.

Parent

The Replication Synchronization Provider object inherits from Synchronization Provider.

Dependencies

Replication Synchronization Providers depend on the following objects:

The following objects belong to Replication Synchronization Providers:

Basic Properties

bootstrap-replication-server

SynopsisThe 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.
DescriptionAddresses must be specified using the replication port of the remote replication servers using the syntax "hostname:repl-port". When using an IPv6 address as the hostname, put brackets around the address as in "[IPv6Address]:repl-port".
Default Value

Adding a replication server or a replication domain requires this to be filled.

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.

heartbeat-interval

SynopsisSpecifies the heartbeat interval that the directory server will use when communicating with Replication Servers.
DescriptionThe directory server expects a regular heartbeat coming from the Replication Server within the specified interval. If a heartbeat is not received within the interval, the Directory Server closes its connection and connects to another Replication Server.

isolation-policy

SynopsisSpecifies the behavior of the directory server when writing to replicated data while none of the configured Replication Servers are available.
Default Value

reject-all-updates

Allowed Values

accept-all-updates: The server accepts updates even when it cannot send them to any Replication Server. When a Replication Server again becomes available, the server attempts to resend the updates. This does not guarantee that updates will be successfully resent. This mode can cause high replication latency.

reject-all-updates: Indicates that all updates attempted on this Replication Synchronization Provider are rejected when no Replication Server is available.

referrals-url

SynopsisThe URLs other LDAP servers should use to refer to the local server.

replication-purge-delay

SynopsisMinimum lifetime of changelog data and old replication meta-data in directory entries. Changelog data and replication meta-data older than this setting is eligible to be removed.
DescriptionAfter the purge delay has passed, the server removes old changelog data over time when it applies new updates. Replication meta-data is stored in changed directory entries. The server removes old replication meta-data either when the entry is next modified, or by a dedicated purge task, whichever happens first. The server temporarily stops removing old data when it has been unable to process updates for an extended period of time. For example, the server stops removing data when the server is offline, and when it cannot access other servers due to a network partition. Once old data is removed, the server can no longer use it for replication. Changelog and replication meta-data older than the purge delay must therefore be considered stale. Backups must be newer than the purge delay, including the time it takes to restore a backup.
Default Value

ssl-cert-nickname

SynopsisSpecifies the nicknames (also called the aliases) of the keys or key pairs that the Replication Synchronization Provider should use when performing SSL communication.
DescriptionThe 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 Synchronization Provider is configured to use SSL.
Default Value

Let the server decide.
