Not sure I was much help. I am sure Rich will jump into the conversation. I am proper back at work next week and can then dig around and give you a more complete answer with regards to exact steps if you can wait that long.Are you going to reuse the hostnames as well as the IP addresses?
Regards

@Gerhardus - Thanks for your help. I inherited the setup. 2 servers with multi-master replication on RH 5.6 / 5.7. The new replacement server will be CentOS 6.2. Version info follows.
The “old” RH servers:
[root@x-389-01 src]# ns-slapd -v
389 Project
389-Directory/1.2.2 B2009.237.2042
[root@x-389-02 ~]# ns-slapd -v

Subject: Re: [389-users] Replacing a DS server
Hi
Its difficult to say wiithout knowing how you have configured your two servers...
In setups that I have had previosly I just rebuild the server (OS) and install 389.
before I continue I remove the "old" server from the config database as that was multimastered as well.
I then continue the 389 registration by running setup-ds.pl
I have lost my exact steps that I have followed but basically if you have a multimaster environment the new server will just be viewed as a very out of date master and for a while will be busy. You can populate it from the gui which will repopulate the database.
