Hi all, I am hitting an issue with reinitializing the directory database. Basically I have two directory servers and they're configured using multi-master replication scheme. When I reinitialize the directory database, the directory became inaccessible. I think it is related with my multi-master replication setup because when I use only reinitialize one LDAP, it would work just fine My question is if multi-master replication is enabled on two LDAPs then do I need to reinitialize both LDAPs at the same time or just one LDAP? Thanks! - David On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 4:42 PM, Chun Tat David Chu < beyonddc.storage at gmail.com> wrote: > Reinitializing the directory database does the trick!
