Thanks. I'll give that a try.

Before we could even start that, One of the multi-master nodes failed. We've gone through replicating to the failed node and to an upgraded host. We get the "Skipping entry" warnings resulting in dropped entries.

    Thanks. I asked about the version because I seem to remember (but don’t quote me on this), hearing about this issue being solved somewhere in the 1.3.x series, probably about 1.3.6ish at a guess.
    
    If I recall, it comes about because the entries are sent in “entryid order”, but if you had:
    
    ou=foo,dc=bar (entry id 1)
    ou=baz,dc=bar (entry id 2)
    
    Then you modrdn these such as:
    
    ou=foo,ou=baz,dc=bar
    
    ou=foo,ou=baz,dc=bar is “id 1” so is sent first, but it’s parent ou=baz hasn’t been sent yet.
    
    
    First step in any situation like this: take back ups of the good remaining server :) db2bak and db2ldif -r if possible.
    
    After that, I’d say to restore the other host, load the ldif from the good master you created with “db2ldif -r”, with “ldif2db”, and see if replication is able to start from there.
    
    If not, we’ll have to investigate further.
    
    Hope this helps
