Note: this component is designated "advanced", which means that objects of this type are not expected to be created or altered in most environments. If you believe that such a change is necessary, you may want to contact support in order to understand the potential impact of that change.
A Replication Domain comprises of several Directory Server instances sharing the same synchronized set of data.
↓Relations to This Component
↓Properties
↓dsconfig Usage
The following components have a direct composition relation to Replication Domains:
The properties supported by this managed object are as follows:
| Basic Properties: | Advanced Properties: |
|---|---|
| ↓ server-id | ↓ window-size |
| ↓ base-dn | ↓ heartbeat-interval |
| ↓ sync-hist-purge-delay | |
| ↓ restricted |
| Description | Specifies a unique identifier for the Directory Server within the Replication Domain. Each Directory Server within the same Replication Domain must have a different server ID. A Directory Server which is a member of multiple Replication Domains may use the same server ID for each of its Replication Domain configurations. |
| Default Value | None |
| Allowed Values | An integer value. Lower limit is 1. Upper limit is 65535 . |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | Yes |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
| Description | Specifies the base DN of the replicated data. |
| Default Value | None |
| Allowed Values | A valid DN. |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | Yes |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
window-size (Advanced Property)
| Description | Specifies the maximum number of replication updates the Directory Server can have outstanding from the Replication Server. To gauge if the current window size setting is sufficient, check the current-rcv-window monitor attribute under load. If it hovers around zero, consider increasing the window size. Likewise, if the current-send-window monitor attribute hovers around zero under load, consider increasing the window size of the associated Replication Server. |
| Default Value | 5000 |
| Allowed Values | An integer value. Lower limit is 10. Upper limit is 100000 . |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
heartbeat-interval (Advanced Property)
| Description | Specifies the heartbeat interval that the Directory Server will use when communicating with Replication Servers. The Directory Server expects a regular heartbeat coming from the Replication Server within the specified interval. If a heartbeat is not received within the interval, the Directory Server closes its connection and connects to another Replication Server. |
| Default Value | 30000ms |
| Allowed Values | A duration. Lower limit is 10000 milliseconds. |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
sync-hist-purge-delay (Advanced Property)
| Description | The time in seconds after which historical information used in replication conflict resolution is purged. The information is removed from entries when they are modified after the purge delay has elapsed. |
| Default Value | 86400s |
| Allowed Values | A duration. Lower limit is 0 seconds. |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
restricted (Advanced Property)
| Description | When set to true, changes are only replicated with server instances that belong to the same replication set. By default, replication changes are propagated in the entire topology. In some cases, however, it is desirable to limit the scope of replication. The entry balancing feature, for example, allows the same base DN to be partitioned into multiple data sets. Changes within a data set may be replicated, while the same is not desired between data sets. |
| Default Value | false |
| Allowed Values | true false |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
