Hi,
You can upgrade both replicas at different time (and make sure that everything work as expected before upgrading the second replica to ensure service continuity)
Usually a simple dnf upgrade is enough but 3.1.3 requires some manual steps
because bdb databases needs to be mitigated to lmdb (as explained in https://www.port389.org/docs/389ds/howto/howto-migrate-bdb-to-lmdb.html)
BTW: since 3.0.6 supports both bdb and lmdb, you should probably better migrate the database before upgrading (so you have a way back in case of problem)
if I remember rightly, in 3.0 version, there were a few bugs about displaying some alarming messages while running dsctl dblib bdb2mdb but as far as you get the migration 100% completed message everything is fine
Regards,
Pierre Rogier

I have a two node cluster of 389-ds running on 3.0.6 included with RHEL
10 (running on Rocky 10.0), doing two way replication.
Now RHEL 10.1 has come out and it is rebased to 3.1.3. The question is
can I just update one, reboot, then update the other and all will be
good or is there more nuanced procedure I need to follow?
For example should I halt changes to the directory, turn of replication,
upgrade the two servers then turn replication back on.
There doesn't appear to be much documentation on the subject. My gut
feeling is I can do a "dnf upgrade" on each server, reboot and then move
to the next one, but having never done it before I am seeking some
guidance. Till a couple of months ago we had been happily using NIS for
the last couple of decades.
