The cn=monitor branch has a number of entries that store the replication state of a topology.

  • Direct LDAP Server <baseDN> <host name:port> <serverID>. Defines an LDAP server that is directly connected to the replication server that you are querying. The information in this entry applies to the replication server local to the cn=monitor entry. For detailed information, see Summary of the Direct LDAP Monitor Information.
  • Indirect LDAP Server <baseDN> <serverID>. Defines an LDAP server that is connected to another replication server in the topology. While this server is connected to the same topology, it is not connected to the replication server being queried. For detailed information, see Summary of the Indirect LDAP Server Monitor Information.
  • Remote Repl Server <baseDN> <host name:port> <serverID>. Defines a remote replication server that is connected to the local replication server. Information in this entry is in respect to the Replication Server local to the cn=monitor branch. For detailed information, see Summary of the Remote Replication Server Monitor Information.
  • Replica <baseDN>. Stores information for an instance of the replicated naming context— also known as the replica—with respect to the Directory Server and its communication with a replication server. The Replica information is what is responsible for sending and receiving changes from the replication servers. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replica Monitor Information.
  • Replication Server <replPort> <serverID>. Shows the information specific to the Replication Server running, for example, on the replication port <replPort> with a server ID of <serverID>. This entry defines the replication server. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replication Server Monitor Information.
  • Replication Server Database <baseDN> <serverID>. Shows information for the changelog table of replica (suffix) in the replication server. As the Replication Server receives updates from the Directory Server, it records those changes in the changelog table. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replication Server Database Monitor Information.
  • Replication Server Database Environment <baseDN>. Shows the information for the database environment for the replication server backend plus the total number of records added to and deleted from the database. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replication Server Database Environment Monitor Information.
  • Replication Summary <baseDN>. Shows summary information on the replication topology and the state for a particular base DN. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replication Summary Monitor Information.
  • Replication Changes Backend. Shows the backend information for all replication changes. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replication Changes Backend Monitor Information.
  • Replication Protocol Buffer. Shows the state of the buffer (initially 4k) for protocol operations, which is stored in thread local storage. For detailed information, see Summary of the Replication Protocol Buffer Monitor Information.
