Hi!

We have a provider/consumer (master/slave) setup and we wish to create a database backup on the master.
Replica setting on the master are set to "Single Master".

But when I run
.../db2bak $backup_path/$current_date
Backup fails an the following error is written in the errors log:
ERROR: Standalone db2bak is not supported when a multimaster replication enabled server is coexisting.
Please use db2bak.pl, instead.

Since multimaster replication is not used, should I consider this a bug?
Or is it referring to the "Single Master" setup as a multimaster setup?

Yes.  "Single Master" is a misleading term as it implies that there is some sort of special protocol or setting that prevents having multiple masters.  There is no such thing.

What version of 389-ds-base?  rpm -q 389-ds-base.
We are using latest from CentOS repo 389-ds-base-1.2.11.15-48.el6_6.x86_64.
There are no such problems with the old centos-ds-base-8.2.8-2.el5.centos.

Looks like it was changed for 9.0.  See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Populating_Directory_Databases-Backing_Up_and_Restoring_Data.html


I've browsed the dse.ldif and found the entry defining the replication (certain entries omitted):
dn: cn=replica,cn=dc\3Dcompany\2Cdc\3Dcom,cn=mapping tree,cn=config
objectClass: nsDS5Replica
objectClass: top
nsDS5ReplicaRoot: dc=company,dc=com
nsDS5ReplicaType: 3
nsDS5Flags: 1
nsDS5ReplicaId: 47
nsds5ReplicaPurgeDelay: 604800
cn: replica
...

I have found the following in the RHDS docs:
"nsDS5ReplicaType: 3"  - 3 for both single and multi-master suppliers (read-write replicas)

From this I would surmise that it does not matter if I choose the single- or multimaster, nsDS5ReplicaType is set to 3.

Correct.

And db2bak will not work.

Correct.  You have to use db2bak.pl now.  See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Populating_Directory_Databases-Backing_Up_and_Restoring_Data.html

Would this be about right?
