To Verify Successful User Data Replication

Before You Begin

This procedure assumes you have just completed To Initialize the Replication Agreements and are still logged into the ds–1 host machine as a root user.

1. Run ldapmodify on the ds-1 host machine to create a new directory entry.

   # cd /var/opt/mps/serverroot/dsrk6/bin # ./ldapmodify -a -h ds-1.example.com -p 1489 -D cn=admin,cn=Administrators,cn=config -w dsmanager dn: ou=People,dc=company,dc=com objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: People description: Container for user entries Hit ENTER to indicate end of input. adding new entry ou=People,dc=company,dc=com Hit Control C to terminate the command. ^C

   This step creates a new organizational unit on Directory Server 1.

2. After the entry is created, log in to the ds–2 host machine as a root user.

3. Run ldapsearch on Directory Server 2 to verify that the directory entry was successfully replicated.

   # cd /var/opt/mps/serverroot/dsrk6/bin # ./ldapsearch -b "dc=company,dc=com" -p 1489 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w dsmanager "objectclass=organizationalUnit" version: 1 dn: ou=People,dc=company,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalUnit ou: People description Container for user entries

4. Now run ldapdelete on Directory Server 2 to delete the entry just created.

   # ./ldapdelete -h ds-2.example.com -p 1489 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w dsmanager "ou=People,dc=company,dc=com"

5. Now, as a root user on Directory Server 1, run ldapsearch to verify that the entry was deleted.

   # ./ldapsearch -b "dc=company,dc=com" -p 1489 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w dsmanager "objectclass=organizationalUnit"

   The search will return no results as the delete was successfully replicated.

6. Log out of both Directory Server host machines.
