Hi
I have been doing some testing to see how a database(netscapedb)
will catch up with replicated changes when the server has been shutdown and/or
broken.
My test is very basic:
Shutdown master2
Add an entry to netscapedb on master1
Bring up master2
Tail error log for replication messages and check console on
master2 for presence of data.
I know this is imprecise but my observation has been so far
that if master2 was down for a short period of time it will automatically catch
up but if it were down for a longer period of time (more than an hour) and I
bring it up, new updates are not automatically send. I have to click on send
updates in the 389-console for the latest changes to be reflected.
Is there more definitive rules that govern when a database
will be updated automatically and when the process becomes manual?
Best Regards
