[389-users] Re: Questions re: Replication Change Log Management

Hi Paul,

Another reason the the change log might not be trimmed is if there is a replication agreement that has not sent some of those changes yet.  I think it can also happen if there is an obsolete replica in the RUV.

Check the ruv with this command (adjust the suffix of course):  

    # dsconf slapd-localhost replication get-ruv --suffix dc=example,dc=com

If you see a replica RUV element that is out of place you can remove it using the cleanallruv task

    # dsconf slapd-localhost repl-tasks cleanallruv --suffix dc=example,dc=com --replica-id <the ID> --force-cleaning

You can also enable replication error logging and check for trimming events.  Trimming is probably still happening, but perhaps it's not a lot of entries:

    # dsconf slapd-localhost logging error set level replication

And when you're done you can do:

    # dsconf slapd-localhost logging error set level default

HTH,

Mark

Good afternoon,

We are running 389-DS version 2.8.0-10.  We have a multi-supplier replication agreement in place and each supplier to hub and then to consumers.  We have a changelog retention policy of 7 days (the default).  Lately we are noticing very large replication-changelog.db files to the tune of about 17-22 GB.  The 7-day retention policy doesnt seem to be truncating the size of these files as relication chages are aged off.  I have tried setting the max size of the db to 10 GB, but that did not make a difference and then changed the trim-interval setting to every 5 minutes.  Still no change in the db file size.  Is there a better way to manage this cleanly?

Thank you,
