fact

Novell eDirectory 8.7 for All Platforms

symptom

Synchronization errors while sending objects to a filtered replica.

cause

Filters in a filtered replica do not keep referential integrity.  This means that if a schema definition is deleted from the tree and a filtered replica had that definition defined in its filter, the objects being synchronized will generate schema errors (the error will differ depending on what was deleted and what was defined in the filter).

fix

If schema is deleted from the tree, this should be a rare occurence and is not recommended as a general practice, any filters that use the deleted schema definitions will need to be manually modified to avoid synchronization errors.
