Installing, Configuring and Administering the Kerberos Server V 2.0 on HP-UX 11i

Propagation
Monitoring Propagation
Chapter 7234
Step 1. On a secondary server, stop the daemons and then from the
/opt/krb5/admin directory, run the kdb_dump utility using the following
syntax:
# /opt/krb5/admin/kdb_dump -f /tmp/secondary.db
Step 2. From the primary server, stop the daemons and then repeat the
procedure:
# /opt/krb5/admin/kdb_dump -f /tmp/primary.db
Step 3. Restart the daemons on both the primary and the secondary.
Step 4. To compare the files for discrepancies, copy the files to the same location
and use the diff command:
diff primary.db secondary.db > diffs_p.db
The diff command creates a file, diffs_p.db, that lists each principal
entry on the primary database that does not match an entry on the
secondary principal database. For more information on the diff
command, type man diff on your HP-UX command prompt.
Restarting Propagation Using the Simple Process
To restart the Prop daemon, you can follow either a simple process of
restarting the daemons, or a more complex process in which you also
create a new propagation queue file and perform a full dump. This
section describes the simple process.
To stop and restart the propagation daemons:
Step 1. On the secondary server(s), kill the kpropd and execute the following
command:
# /opt/krb5/sbin/kpropd
Step 2. On the primary server, kill the kpropd and execute the following
command:
# /opt/krb5/sbin/kpropd
