Table

Description

Table header

The table header shows the replica ID of the supplier replica, the replicated suffix root

 

(such as dc=example,dc=com), and the maximum change state number (CSN) on

 

the supplier. (The CSN is the ID of the latest change on the supplier, while the max

 

CSN for the supplier shows the last update it received.)

Max CSN

The ID number of the most recent CSN the consumer has received that originated from

 

the supplier.

Time lag

How long it takes for the consumer to receive updates from the supplier; this is the

 

time difference between the supplier and the consumer's max CSNs. When a consumer

 

is in sync with its supplier, the time lag is 0.

Last Modify Time

Gives the time of the last update for the consumer (the time the last CSN entry was

 

sent).

Supplier

Gives the name of the supplier sending updates to that consumer; this can be useful if

 

a consumer receives updates from multiple suppliers or there are multiple suppliers

 

being monitored on the Replication Status page.

Sent/Skipped

The number of changes that were sent from the supplier and the number skipped in

 

the replication update. The numbers are kept in suppliers' memory only and are cleared

 

if the supplier is restarted.

Update Status

The status code (and meaning) for the last update. This column can indicate a possible

 

deadlock if all the suppliers complain that they cannot acquire a busy replica. It is

 

normal for there to be a busy message if one of the suppliers is doing an update.

Update Start and End

The timestamps for when the most recent update process started and ended.

Schedule

The configured replication schedule. 0:-:means that the consumer is continually

 

updated by the supplier.

SSL?

Indicates whether the supplier connects to the consumer over SSL.
