Assumptions
The example assumes the following conditions:
-
None of the servers have participated in any previous replication topology. This is supported for one or multiple entry balancing domains.
-
This example uses the LDAP (389) and replication (8989) ports. It configures the following hosts:
-
austin1.example.com
-
newyork1.example.com
-
austin2.example.com
-
newyork2.example.com
-
-
The global domain is
dc=example,dc=com
, which is replicated across all servers. -
The data below the entry-balancing point of
ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
is distributed across two data sets, dataSet1 and dataSet2. -
Each data set is replicated between two directory servers. Each of these servers is associated with one of two locations, Austin or New York.
