I have noticed on my Fedora consumers there appear to be quite a few
tombstones going back months even thought the Purge delay is set to a week:
ldapsearch -x -b "cn=mapping tree,cn=config" -D "cn=Directory
Manager"
-W cn=replica nsds5ReplicaPurgeDelay
# replica,
o=blah.com, mapping tree, config
dn: cn=replica,cn="o=blah.com",cn=mapping tree, cn=config
nsds5ReplicaPurgeDelay: 604800
--- example tombstone ---
# ad82a101-1dd111b2-80a3f995-55bd0000, bob(a)zzz.com, Blah,
blah.com
dn: nsuniqueid=ad82a101-1dd111b2-80a3f995-55bd0000,
uid=bob(a)zzz.com,ou=Blah,
o=blah.com
objectClass: blahPerson
objectClass: nsTombstone
uid: bob(a)zzz.com
nsParentUniqueId: ccd21704-1dd111b2-80a6a51e-7dae0000
modifyTimestamp: 20090713210513Z
There seems to be hundreds of these dating back 6 months to when the
server was built. Why are these old entries not being purged?
Thanks.
Jim.
