Hello,

      I am trying to replicate my userRoot database to another 389LDAP server (supplier: 389ds1, consumer: 389ds2). The database on the supplier has not been replicated to any server for more than 2 years. (yikes!!!). 

I have been successful in backing up the database in question, and am now trying to create a replica agreement. I created the root suffix on the consumer side (389ds2) and then created a replication agreement from the admin console. The admin console has been in the state of wait while consumer is initialized. 


Here is the output from the repl-monitor script

Enter password for (:): Master: 389ds1.northshore.edu:389 ldap://389ds1.northshore.edu:389/

My question is... is this hung or is the replication initialization going to take days because of how long it has been since it has replicated the database?
