Periodically, the server runs an internal housekeeping operation to purge old update and state information from the main database. For more information, see “nsDS5ReplicaPurgeDelay”.

When setting this attribute, remember that the purge operation is time-consuming, especially if the server handles many delete operations from clients and suppliers.

2.3.7.12nsDS5ReplicaReapActive

This read-only attribute specifies whether the background task that removes old tombstones (deleted entries) from the database is active. See “nsDS5ReplicaTombstonePurgeInterval” for more information about this task. A value of 0 means that the task is inactive, and a value of 1 means that the task is active. The server ignores the modify request if this value is set manually.

0 or 1

 

 

Default Value

Example

nsDS5ReplicaReapActive: 0

 

 

2.3.7.13nsState

This attribute stores information on the state of the clock. It is designed only for internal use to ensure that the server cannot generate a change sequence number (csn) inferior to existing ones required for detecting backward clock errors.
