HP-UX Directory Server 8.1 administrator guide

The supplier bind DN should be the entry created in step 2. The supplier bind DN is a
privileged user because it is not subject to access control.
NOTE:
There can be multiple supplier bind DNs per consumer but only one supplier DN per
replication agreement.
g. Specify the URL for any supplier servers to which to refer updates.
By default, all updates are first referred to the supplier servers that are specified here.
If no suppliers are set here, updates are referred to the supplier servers that have a
replication agreement that includes the current replica.
Automatic referrals assume that clients bind over a regular connection; this has a URL
in the form ldap://hostname:port. For clients to bind to the supplier using SSL,
use this field to specify a referral of the form ldaps://hostname:port, where the s
in ldaps indicates a secure connection.
4. Click Save.
Repeat these steps for every consumer server in the replication configuration.
8.4.3 Create the replication agreement
Create one replication agreement for each read-only replica. For example, in the scenario illustrated
in Figure 8-1 “Single-master replication”, Server A has two replication agreements, one for Server
B and one for Server C.
1. In the navigation tree of the Configuration tab, right-click the database to replicate, and
select New Replication Agreement.
Alternatively, highlight the database, and select New Replication Agreement from the
Object menu to start the Replication Agreement Wizard.
2. In the first screen, fill in a name and description for the replication agreement, and click
Next.
3. In the Source and Destination screen, fill in the URL for the consumer and the supplier
bind DN and password on that consumer. If the target server is not available, click Other...
to fill in the information manually.
