Replica Settings
</p>

<p class="text">
<a name="28759"> </a>
Use this tab to configure replication settings for the database selected in the left navigation tree.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28760"> </a>
<b>Enable Replica. </b>Select this checkbox to enable replication. You must select this checkbox to activate all other fields in the window.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28764"> </a>
<b>Single Master. </b>Select this radio button if you want this Directory Server to act as the single supplier server for this database.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28768"> </a>
<b>Multiple Master. </b>Select this radio button if you want this Directory Server to act as one of the supplier servers that can replicate this database to consumers.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28772"> </a>
<b>Hub. </b>Select this radio button if you want this Directory Server to accept updates from a supplier server, and replicate changes to consumer servers.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28776"> </a>
<b>Dedicated Consumer. </b>Select this radio button if you want this Directory Server to accept updates from a supplier server. A dedicated consumer can service search operations but not update operations. Update operations will be referred to a supplier server.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28777"> </a>
<b>Replica ID. </b>An integer between 1 and 255 that identifies the replica. The replica IDs of the master replicas must be unique. In other words, master replicas involved in the same multi-master configuration must have different replica IDs. However, two master replicas (corresponding to different suffixes) on the same server can have the same replica ID.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28778"> </a>
If the ID is incorrect, the field labels turn red and the Save button is disabled.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28779"> </a>
<b>Purge delay.</b> The delay you specify in these fields determines how often the state information stored in the replicated entries is purged. Check the Never checkbox if you want to save this information indefinitely.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28783"> </a>
<b>Updatable by a 4.x Replica.</b> Check this checkbox if you want this Directory Server to act as a legacy consumer of a 4.x supplier server.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28784"> </a>
<b>Current Supplier DNs.</b> This field lists the supplier bind DNs that supplier servers must use to update this replica. You can now specify multiple supplier bind DNs per replica, but only one supplier DN per replication agreement. Use the "Enter a new Supplier DN" field to specify a new supplier DN and click Add to add it to this list. If you have configured replication over SSL, specify the DN of the entry that contains the supplier's certificate in the "Enter a new Supplier DN" field and click Add to add it to this list.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="28785"> </a>
<b>Current URLs for referrals (Optional).</b> Directory Server uses the information contained in the replication agreement to create referrals from the consumer server to the appropriate supplier servers. This field lists the URLs you specify in addition to the automatic URLs which will be set up automatically. If you want the consumer to return an <code>ldaps://</code> URL, so that clients will bind to the supplier servers using SSL, enter the URL in the "Enter a new URL" field and click Add to add it to this list of current URLs. In the same way, if you have a cascading replication scenario and you want the referral returned to clients to point to the original supplier instead of the hub supplier, enter the corresponding URL in the "Enter a new URL" field and click Add to add it to this list of current URLs.
