Replication with Earlier Releases

Managing Replication

Configuring Directory Server as a Consumer of a
Legacy Directory Server
If you intend to use your Directory Server as a consumer of an earlier release of
Directory Server, you must configure it as follows:
1.
On the Directory Server Console, click the Configuration tab.
For information on starting the Directory Server Console, “Using the Directory
Server Console,” on page 32.
2.
On the Configuration tab, select the Replication node and click the Legacy
Consumer Settings tab in the right pane.
3.
Check the Enable Legacy Consumer checkbox.
This activates the fields in the Authentication box.
4.
Specify the Supplier DN that the legacy supplier server will use to bind.
Optionally, you can specify a password. The password must contain at least 8
characters.
5.
Click Save.
You must now configure legacy consumer settings for each replica that will
receive updates from a legacy supplier.
6.
In the navigation tree, expand the Replication node and select a replica that
will receive updates from the legacy supplier.
7.
On the Replication tab in the right pane, check the Enable Replication and the
Enable Legacy Consumer checkboxes.
These options are the only ones required for replication to work. You can
optionally specify a Replica ID. It is not necessary to specify a Supplier DN,
because the one you specified in Step 4 will be used.
8.
Click Save.
Repeat Step 7 and Step 8 for each read-only replica that will receive updates
from a legacy supplier.
To complete your legacy replication setup, you must now configure the legacy
supplier to replicate to the Directory Server. For instructions on configuring a
replication agreement on a 4.x Directory Server, refer to the documentation for
your legacy Directory Server.
