Re: MMR broken, reinitialization erases db

With the help of a couple folks on IRC (thanks richm, uffe!), here's
what I figured out I can do:

In order to get two machines doing MMR again, I first got rid of any
MMR agreements between them, and then shut them both down.  Then I
chose one and exported the LDAP database with:

/opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/db2ldif -n userRoot

I copied the LDIF file to the other node.  Then I imported it on both:

/opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/ldif2db -n userRoot -i /
    /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/ldif/2007_03_22_141131.ldif

Then I went into the changelogdb/ folder and blew away all of the
__db.*, *.db4, and log.* files.  At this point, I started Fedora DS on
both nodes again.  I then used mmr.pl to re-initialize the MMR
agreement between the two of them, and all was well.

I've now got MMR working again between three nodes; the fourth will
get added back in late tonight.

This may be more cautious than is necessary, but it's working.

I still have no clue what caused this initially, but I don't really
care (unless it happens again).

Thanks for everyone's help!

Sometime earlier this week (still trying to determine when), the
multi-master replication on one of our databases broke.  I tried to
reinitialize it between a few of the hosts, and I got a bunch of

This erased the database, and I was left with no data.  Subsequently,
I've restarted FDS, restored from backup using bak2db.pl, and it still
doesn't work.

Any ideas?
