Fedora directory users - Jan 2007 - Request for any additional live experience issues with Fedora Multi-Master replication...

Dear All,

 

After a successful c. 3 month trial period of using Multi-Master (*4)
replication (RHEL4) on our test networks we are planning to progress to live
operation in the near term.

 

Since this trial went a little too well (.healthy paranoia!?) I would
welcome any feedback with respect to other users'' experiences with live
operation, for example:

 

1)       Your preferred approach to replacing a Master DS after underlying
hardware failure, in terms of ensuring that recovery from the other three
Masters is indeed achieved in a very timely manner (e.g. usage of any
variants on forced replication updates?).

 

2)       Replication degradation and eventual recovery where the
intermediate network links degrade appreciably or are completely lost for a
significant period, before returning and allowing the replication to
recover.



Thanks in advance!

 

Regards,

Kevin
