I am looking for some advice and information. I have configured multiple LDAPs 
in a Mirror-Mode configuration and fronted by OpenLDAP in proxy mode. 
I understand that the list contained in the DBURI attribute is used to define 
the backends, and all the proxies are configured with the same list. I 
understand that first URI in the DbURI attribute will be used unless this 
fails, in which case it will fall back to the second URI. It will then keep on 
the second one until that one fails. This seems fine for most failure cases, 
when all proxies recognise the same failure. If communication fails between one 
proxy and the one backend LDAP and doesn't affect all proxies, writes will now 
be directed to different backends from different proxies. Is there some way to 
keep the proxies in-line or recognise a failure on one proxy and force the 
others to change. 
Thanks in advance
