[389-users] MMR issue ...

Hi, I've encountered issues with a MMR setup, which looks like the following: A ------- B \ / \ / \ / C The replication works for approximately 24 hours. There are not many changes to the content anyway. After about 1 day, the attribute value of the type "nsds5replicaLastUpdateStatus" changes to "1 Can't acquire busy replica " of the replication agreement object from type "nsDS5ReplicationAgreement". I see this message on C for the agreement "C-to-B". The start-time of the last update is 01:08:33. When I check the status on B, it looks fine for "B-to-C" and "B-to-A", however, the start-time of the last update is stuck at 01:08:36 for "B-to-C", whereas A gets updated afterwards as well. I don't have the values for A! When, I check errors and access on the boxes, I see the following: Errors on A: [10/Nov/2012:01:19:31 -0300] NSMMReplicationPlugin - agmt="cn=A-to-B" (B:389): Warning: unable to receive endReplication extended operation response (Timed out) [10/Nov/2012:01:25:01 -0300] NSMMReplicationPlugin - agmt="cn=A-to-B" (B:389): Unable to receive the response for a startReplication extended operation to consumer (Can't contact LDAP server).

Next replication session from C, established at 01:05:12 and closed at 01:06:12. There was NO session from B. B and C establish the next replication session at 01:07:52. During the session, a MOD is performed at 01:08:33. C closes this session at 01:09:35. The session from B stays open, and I see a ABANDOM request from A at 01:17:53. Eventually, the session gets closed (no unbind) at 01:23:25. [10/Nov/2012:01:17:53 -0300] conn=1439 op=3 ABANDON targetop=NOTFOUND msgid=3 Replication sessions from C continue to work fine. There is one more replication session from B, established at 01:27:56 and closed at 01:28:38. After this session, B does not establish any replication session anymore. I see replication sessions from A and C, established at 01:00:09 and closed at 01:01:14. Next replication session from C, established at 01:05:12 and closed at 01:06:12. There was NO session from A. A and C establish the next replication session at 01:07:52. During the session, a MOD is performed at 01:08:33. C closes this session at 01:09:35. The session from A stays open forever!!! Replication sessions from C continue to work fine. I see replication sessions from A and B, established at 01:00:09 and closed at 01:01:14. I don't see any replication session from the 01:05 time-slot A and B establish the next replication session at 01:07:53. During the session, a MOD is performed at 01:08:33. A closes this session at 01:09:33 and B closes session at 01:09:38 Has anybody seen this kind of behavior? Any feedback is highly appreciated. Thanks, -Reinhard
