Sun Directory Server 5.2 6-Way MMR – part 3 – Creating the changelog
In order to configure replication in Directory Server 5.2, a changelog database is required on each master and replication hub instance in the topology.
As each of the 6 instances in this topology are going to be master instances, each is required to have its own changelog.
To simply things (at the expense of performance for larger installations), I created the changelog database inside the filesystem path of the installation (ie: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds0) for each instance.
The paths I used for the changelogdb are as follows:
ds0: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds0/changelogdb
ds1: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds1/changelogdb
ds2: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds2/changelogdb
ds3: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds3/changelogdb
ds4: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds4/changelogdb
ds5: /opt/ldap/slapd-ds5/changelogdb
I also have posted instructions on how to create a changelogdb.
