[389-users] How to keep dnanextvalue in sync when using DNA plugin?

[Kyle Johnson]

Each server does have the same range, yes, however the first server was 
configured about a month before the second was even stood up.  Here is 
the ldif that I used on the new server; the same ldif was used on the 
original server:

dn: cn=UID numbers,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment 
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
objectClass: top
objectClass: extensibleObject
cn: UID numbers
dnatype: uidNumber
dnamagicregen: 99999
dnafilter: (objectclass=posixAccount)
dnascope: dc=infra,dc=dfw
dnanextvalue: 10000

dn: cn=GID numbers,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment 
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
objectClass: top
objectClass: extensibleObject
cn: GID numbers
dnatype: gidNumber
dnamagicregen: 88888
dnafilter: (|(objectclass=posixAccount)(objectclass=posixGroup))
dnascope: dc=infra,dc=dfw
dnanextvalue: 10000

The difference is that the dnanextvalue on the original server is now up 
to around ~10080.
