hello, I haven't tried full (config + data) replication from a multimaster setup, but I think that doing so, the slave would become a master like the other from which it replicate, wouldn't it? cc-ing the list to have the opinion of the real experts :-)
by the way, as I write this, I recall an advice from Michael Ströder: if the slaves are to replicate everything from the masters, why wouldn't you make them masters like the others? multi-master replication also work for more than two masters. best regards, Jephté Clain 2016-04-01 18:32 GMT+04:00 Jussi Sallinen <ju...@synack.fi>: > Ah, > > This is two multimaster servers so I guess that approach doesn't work, as > it's meant for master/slave? > > -- > -Jussi Sallinen | UNIX System Administrator > ju...@synack.fi | Syn Ack > +358 40 700 7600 | Helsinki, Finland > >> On 1.4.2016, at 11.08, Jephte Clain <jephte.cl...@univ-reunion.fr> wrote: >> >> hello, >> >> one more thing: make sure to have the proper syncprov overlay AND >> syncrepl directive pointing to the master slapd on the master, at >> least on olcDatabase={0}config and olcDatabase={1}mdb (or whatever is >> the first database that contains the data), e.g: >> >> dn: olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config >> olcSyncrepl: {0}rid=0 provider="ldap://master/" searchbase=cn=config ... >> olcUpdateRef: ldap://master/ >> ... >> >> dn: olcOverlay={0}syncprov,olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config >> ... >> >> dn: olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config >> olcSuffix: dc=univ-reunion,dc=fr >> olcSyncrepl: {0}rid=1 provider="ldap://master/" >> searchbase=dc=univ-reunion,dc=fr >> olcUpdateRef: ldap://master/ >> ... >> >> dn: olcOverlay={0}syncprov,olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config >> ... >> >> the syncrepl directive does nothing on the master, but as this >> configuration is replicated on the slave, the slave knows it has to >> replicate from the master (I hope it's clear enough) >> >> >> >> 2016-04-01 11:06 GMT+04:00 Jussi Sallinen <ju...@synack.fi>: >>> Hi, >>> >>> Thank you for the reply! >>> That's what I thought could be the answer. >>> >>> I will now need to try out how this works with our actual database >>> dc=synack,dc=fi >>> >>> Basicly since this will be a new replica without even the dcDomain object >>> in the initial database it should pick up all the data from existing >>> multimaster replica (empty database is without csn etc and contains no >>> update timestamp). >>> >>> -- >>> -Jussi Sallinen | UNIX System Administrator >>> ju...@synack.fi | Syn Ack >>> +358 40 700 7600 | Helsinki, Finland >>> >>>> On 1.4.2016, at 8.27, Jephte Clain <jephte.cl...@univ-reunion.fr> wrote: >>>> >>>> Le 01/04/2016 01:26, Jussi Sallinen a écrit : >>>>> Hi, >>>>> >>>>> How you managed to get this working or did you come up with a workaround: >>>>> http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201201/msg00205.html >>>>> >>>>> I have a similar situation where I'm doing a reprovision of my 2nd >>>>> multimaster replica virtualhost and adding base config etc. with ldapadd >>>>> (we build it from scratch with Ansible during reprovisioning). >>>>> After the new multimaster replica comes up it has newer timestamps than >>>>> the current up & running replica from where this new one is supposed to >>>>> replicate everything as we use ldapadd during the reprovision phase with >>>>> Ansible. >>>> >>>> hello, >>>> >>>> after you create the seed replica, you just have to "touch" the master to >>>> ensure the timestamp on the master is newer than on the replica. >>>> >>>> As the seed configuration only contains 3 objects: cn=config, >>>> olcDatabase={-1}frontend,cn=config and olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config, I >>>> do it that way: >>>> >>>> $ ldapmodify -H ldap://master ...credentials... <<EOF >>>> dn: cn=config >>>> changetype: modify >>>> >>>> dn: olcDatabase={-1}frontend,cn=config >>>> changetype: modify >>>> >>>> dn: olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config >>>> changetype: modify >>>> EOF >>>> >>>> best regards, >>>> Jephté Clain >>>> >>>> -- >>>> *Jephté CLAIN | Développeur, Intégrateur d'applications* >>>> Service Systèmes d'Information >>>> Direction des Systèmes d'Information <http://dsi.univ-reunion.fr> >>>> Tél: +262 262 93 86 31 <tel:+262262938631> || Gsm: +262 692 29 58 24 >>>> <tel:+262692295824> >>>> www.univ-reunion.fr <http://www.univ-reunion.fr> || Facebook >>>> <http://www.facebook.com/pages/Universit%C3%A9-de-La-R%C3%A9union-OFFICIEL/197176816990430> >>>> || Twitter <http://twitter.com/univ_reunion> >> >> >> >> -- >> Jephté CLAIN | Développeur, Intégrateur d'applications >> Service Système d'Information >> Direction des Systèmes d'Information >> Tél: +262 262 93 86 31 || Gsm: +262 692 29 58 24 >> > -- Jephté CLAIN | Développeur, Intégrateur d'applications Service Système d'Information Direction des Systèmes d'Information Tél: +262 262 93 86 31 || Gsm: +262 692 29 58 24
