Reopen Issue

Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6): Bug 972976

Description of problem:
The issue I am encountering are the following errors when an entry is being
added to the directory or deleted from the directory ? it seems an operations
error err=1 corresponds to a failure in the backend ldbm (see log snippets
below).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
389-ds-base.x86_64              1.2.11.15-14.el6_4 @rhel-x86_64-server-6
Linux 2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 20 12:17:37 EST 2013 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)
How reproducible:
Consistently reproducible.
Steps to Reproduce:
I can reproduce these errors consistently by running a JMeter add/delete loop
test to add and delete entries (see the attached testplan_. It always
transpires that some entries will fail to add or delete and will throw an
operations error err=1 and a corresponding ldbm error.
Actual results:
err=1 and ldbm errors; entry fails to add or delete.
Expected results:
Entries should be added and deleted successfully.
Additional info:
The DNA plugin is active on the server. When sent a uidNumber of 999 or
gidNumber of 999, it will generate a new POSIX uid/gid.
The servers are in a replicated environment (2 MMR masters and 3 replicas).
The error seems to occur regardless of whether the DNA plugin is used or not
(i.e. when sending a non-POSIX entry vs. a POSIX entry to LDAP).

Looks good. Is 1.3.x also affected, the ruv context is already in the retry loop ?
But the hardening of the ruv update code not to go backwards could still be useful

I've done all of my work so far against 1.2.11 - will have to see what of this is applicable for 1.3.1

But the hardening of the ruv update code not to go backwards could still be useful

Yes - parts of this still apply e.g. a preop update will have a later CSN than the "main" op and the main op should not cause the csn in the ruv to go backwards
