Hi, this is my first post to this mailing list, so I apologize if this is
in the wrong location. I have recently started replicating our openLdap
database and as part of that I combed through the admin guide to get a
better understanding. I believe I have a decent grasp on replication now,
but I had a few clarifying questions to ensure I understand.
1. Firstly and least importantly, how is "present" in "present phase"
pronounced? Is it present as a noun, e.g. these are things that are
present in the database, or is it present like a verb, e.g. I'm
presenting all the things in the database?
See <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4533>
2. Besides not needing to
send the entire object in the delete phase, is it true that
delta-syncrRepl provides an additional benefit of having a persisted
session log store, e.g. the session store can survive an openLdap reboot?
With OpenLDAP 2.5+ you can use the accesslog database as a persistent
sessionlog (This is what I do). This is true regardless of standard or
delta syncrepl.
3. Does having a session log
configured make sense if delta-syncrepl is being used?
Yes. delta-syncrepl will fall back to standard syncrepl in some situations.
I do suggest reading the RFC noted above.
Also, with 2.6 at least, I just use standard syncrepl with the accesslog
storing the sessionlog.
