    ok, so there are two questions

    - why doesn't the script work

    - is th escript necesseray

    
    To see why the script isn't working, could you provide the full
    script and commandline of your latest attempt

    
    I think the doc is not fully correct. If a consumer is taken offline
    the supplier can no longer reach it and will try in increasing
    intervals, up to 5 mins, but in my understanding it should retry
    every 5 mins. If the cinsumer comes online the supplier does not
    know about this, and so it could be up to 5 mins until the next
    retry. If you really want immediate respons from the supplier the
    the suplier has to be notified eg by this script.

    But if the consumer has been offline for some time it could probaly
    be acceptable to wait the 5 extra mins

        As per RHES doc:

        https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Managing_Replication-Forcing_Replication_Updates.html#Forcing_Replication_Updates-Forcing_Replication_Updates_from_the_Command_Line

         
         "Even if the replication agreements are
          configured to keep the supplier and consumer servers always in sync, it is not
          sufficient to bring back up-to-date a
            server that has been offline for over five minutes.
          The Always Keep in Sync
          option means that the server generates a replication operation
          for every update operation it processes. However, if this
          replication operation cannot be performed because the consumer
          is offline, the operation times out after 10 minutes. 
        11.15.2. Forcing Replication Updates from the Command Line
         From the consumer that requires updating, run
          a script that prompts the supplier to send replication updates
          immediately. This script is shown in Example 11.5,

            “replicate_now Script Example”. 
         Copy this example script and name it
          something like replicate_now.sh.
          Substitute the actual values for the variables listed in Example 11.5,

            “replicate_now Script Example”. 
        
          
            NOTE
          
          
             This script must be run manually since it
              cannot be configured to run automatically as soon as the
              server, which was offline, comes back online again."''
