Re.
I have some additionnal questions, if I may ?
Let's say I have 4 ipa masters :
S1
S2
S3
S4
1. When a modification is performed on a specific server, S1 for example,
then :
- is it the replication plugin on S2, S3, and S4 which replicates the
modification ?
- Or is it the replication plugin on S1 which replicates to S2, S3 and S4 ?
2. To come back to my original question, so this is the replication plugin
of S2, S3 and S4 which tries to create the entry cn=repl keep alive in the
ldap ? Not the the replication plugin from the S1, right ?
3. In the log message I can see a number with the "repl keep alive", do you
know what it means ? Is it the frequency of the replication ?
4. When you say this is to avoid replicas to become obsolete, what do you
mean ? If I understood well, there is one entry in the ldap for cn=repl
keep alive, are there multiple attributes for this entry ?
Sorry for all these questions, I'm a little bit noob here.
Best regards.

Hey Mark.
Thanks for your answer.
Just to be sure, you say this entry is regularly updated, but when I try
to ldapsearch it, I cannot find it :
###
ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -h <IPA SERVER> -p 389 -W -b
"cn=repl keep alive 6,dc=mydomain"
###
Result :
###
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <cn=repl keep alive 6,dc=mydomain> with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 32 No such object
matchedDN: dc=mydomain
# numResponses: 1
###
Maybe my ldapsearch is bad ?
Best regards.
