dse.ldif is written by the server on shutdown. So you either need to ldapmodify 
via cn=config while the server is running, or stop dirsrv, change dse.ldif, and 
the start it again. If you make a change to dse.ldif wile the server is 
running, it's "blown away" on shutdown as we write out the consistent in memory 
dse.ldif. That could be why the change disappeared.

I'd say look at the DS 10 and DS 11 docs. 

We did a lot of work through DS 10 and 11 with the docs and we have documented 
a lot more on the lifecycles such as removal of a replica in a topology. This 
in mind, ds 11 has a new CLI suite so the commands may not match what you have, 
so DS 10 could be better to look at.

See above - you need to stop dirsrv, edit dse.ldif, then start it OR use 
ldapmodify on cn=config.

Hope that helps!
