[389-users] Replication delay, connection blocking ending in closed - B1

Hello –

 

We are seeing an issue where changes can be very slow to replicate to one of our consumers (up to 15m+).  We have a large topology, but in this case the issue is isolated between 2 masters that replicate to 1 consumer.

 

In one example entry addition I found, it appears that we see;

 

-          connection from master1 to consumer1, bunch of changes pushed

-          then master2 connects to consumer1

-          master1 stops doing changes but stays connected

-          master2 does literally 1 change (success, no issues), stays connected

-          16 minutes goes by, no additional changes or replication EXT ops for that connection are done (master1->consumer1 EXT ops continue normally…)

-          after that long pause, master2 disconnects - B1 bad BER tag code

-          and then Master1 resumes making tons of changes

 

Searches in this DB and others continue to take place, and changes in other DBs.  So it wasn’t as if the server was unresponsive/hung.  It is almost as if that DB went “read-only” for a time – I’m unable to tell if something else besides replication was attempting but unable to make writes though.

 

 

Anyone see something like this before?  We see lots of B1 codes randomly, I’ve never understood what may cause that – the description of corruption/physical network problems does not make much sense.  Maybe if our directories were replicating to eachother over the internet, or using Wifi….

 

The time it takes for that connection to end in the B1 doesn’t seem to line up with any dirsrv OR system/TCP timeouts either

 

 

Nothing illuminating in the error logs really.

 

Log snips of this happening;
