Hi,

When my dirsrv was trying to compact the databases I was getting this error

There are about 402k entries in cn=changelog.

I have a few questions
1) is it normal to have so many entries in cn=changelog? On another replica I have almost 3M entries Isn't this cleaned up? 2) the number of locks is 50000 (there are two config items). Should I increase that number? If so, increase to what? 3) is there maybe something else going on, causing the exhaustion of the locks?

Ok, so by default there is no changelog trimming enabled.  So the changelog will grow without bounds, which is bad.

I recommend setting up the changelog max age to 7 days:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/11/html/administration_guide/trimming_the_replication_changelog

Once that the trimming cleans up the changelog the database compaction should work without issue.  You can also increase the database locks to 1 million (that does require a restart of the server to take effect).

HTH,

Mark
