Enable Directory Server 5.2 database back-end
In a MMR agreement, the consumer instance backend that has been initialized needs to be enabled before it can begin accepting replication updates. This is a feature to allow a newly replicated master to catch-up on changes that have occurred during the initialization.
An example LDIF of how to enable a backend:
dn: cn=replica, cn=“suffix“,cn=mapping tree,cn=config
changetype: modify
add: ds5BeginReplicaAcceptUpdates
ds5BeginReplicaAcceptUpdates: start
I created and saved the LDIF to enable this backend suffix as /tmp/enablesuffix.ldif; and ran the ldapmodify command to perform the enable.
/usr/bin/ldapmodify -h host -p port -D ‘rootdn‘ -w ‘password‘ -c -f /tmp/enablesuffix.ldif
