[SOLVED] Promoting/Demoting LDAP Server Problem

[jant0y]

Hello guys,

I need help with promoting replica and demoting master servers.
according to the guide, i should stop all servers and then locate these lines in slapd.conf.in in replica server and delete it

    syncrepl rid=100
    provider=ldap://mail.zimbra.asi.com:389
    retry="60 +"
    type=refreshAndPersist
    schemachecking=off
    searchbase=""
    bindmethod=simple
    binddn=uid=zmreplica,cn=admins,cn=zimbra
    credentials=@@ldap_replication_password@@
    starttls=critical
    logbase="cn=accesslog"
    logfilter="(&(objectClass=auditWriteObject)(reqResult=0))"
    syncdata="accesslog"
    updateref  ldap://mail.zimbra.asi.com:389

did i delete the correct lines?

then after that, i should edit the local config files

zmlocalconfig –e ldap_master_url= mail2.zimbra.asi.com
zmlocalconfig –e ldap_url= mail2.zimbra.asi.com
zmlocalconfig –e ldap_is_master= true

are these commands correct?

then i should change the ldap host

zmlocalconfig –e ldap_host= mail2.zimbra.asi.com

is this right?

and then run zmmtainit

/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmmtainit XX

finally start zimbra right?

i get this error whenever i start zimbra

daemon: listen URL "mail2.zimbra.asi.com" parse error=3

what am i doing wrong? pls help

the correct format for the commands are :

zmlocalconfig –e ldap_master_url=ldap://mail2.zimbra.asi.com:389
zmlocalconfig –e ldap_url=ldap://mail2.zimbra.asi.com:389
