[Fedora-directory-users] Persistent MMR problems

[Chris St. Pierre]

A few months ago, I had a machine die suddenly when the power cord was
tripped over.  (Oops!)  After that, I had some replication issues that
I solved with the help of this list.  Before long, they came back, and
back, and back.  Basically, I get a bunch of messages like this in the
error logs:

[22/Dec/2006:09:26:08 -0600] agmt="cn="Replication to
zeppo.nebrwesleyan.edu (o=pab)"" (zeppo:389) - Can't locate CSN
458acc0e000000020000 in the changelog (DBrc=-30990). The consumer may
need to be reinitialized.
[22/Dec/2006:09:31:09 -0600] agmt="cn="Replication to
chico.nebrwesleyan.edu (o=pab)"" (chico:389) - Can't locate CSN
458acc0e000000020000 in the changelog (DBrc=-30990). The consumer may
need to be reinitialized.

I get similar messages on every host in the 4-way MMR group.  Each
machine only complains about one CSN, but they're different CSNs on
each machine.

This morning, I took down all of the replication agreements, and
reinitialized every host from one, which I temporarily treated as the
authoritative master.  Within minutes, these messages were appearing
again.

Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this once and for all?  I've
rebuilt my replication agreements countless times, and nothing seems
to get them in sync.  Any and all ideas are welcome.  Thanks.
