Replication Attributes under cn=replica, cn="suffixDN", cn=mapping tree, cn=config
83
This attribute specifies the interval, in seconds, to perform internal purge operations on an entry. When
setting this attribute, ensure that the purge delay is longer than the longest replication cycle in the
replication policy to preserve enough information to resolve replication conflicts and to prevent the
copies of data stored in different servers from diverging.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=replica, cn=suffixDN, cn=mapping tree,
cn=config
Valid Range 0 (keep forever) to maximum 32-bit integer
(2147483647)
Default Value 604800 [1 week (60x60x24x7)]
Syntax Integer
Example nsDS5ReplicaPurgeDelay: 604800
2.3.7.11. nsDS5ReplicaReferral
This multi-valued attribute specifies the user-defined referrals. This should only be defined on a

consumer. This optional referral overrides the referral that is automatically configured by the consumer
by the replication protocol.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=replica, cn=suffixDN, cn=mapping tree,
cn=config
Valid Values Any valid LDAP URL
Default Value
Syntax DirectoryString
Example nsDS5ReplicaReferral: ldap://ldap.example.com
2.3.7.12. nsDS5ReplicaRoot
This attribute sets the DN at the root of a replicated area. This attribute must have the same value as
the suffix of the database being replicated and cannot be modified.

Entry DN cn=replica, cn=suffixDN, cn=mapping tree,
cn=config
Valid Values Suffix of the database being replicated, which is
the suffix DN
Default Value
