RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: 389-ds-base-1.3.8.2-1.el7
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Thread processing in Directory Server has been serialized On an incoming replicated session, a replicated operation must only be processed when the previous one is completed. In certain situations, the thread which processed the start session operation continued to read and process replicated operations. Consequently, two replicated operations ran in parallel that led to inconsistencies, such as an completed child "add" operation before the parent entry was added. With this update, the thread processing the start session operation no longer processes further operations, even if some are available in the read buffer. As a result, the inconsistencies no longer occur in the mentioned scenario.

Description German Parente 2018-03-07 14:51:13 UTC 
Description of problem:

We have observed in a read only consumer that the operations are not completely serialized. This should not be a problem except when we add a parent and inmediately after, a child. If the child is processed before the parent or the parent has not finished to be processed, the child could fail to be added. Or a glue entry created, as we have seen already in a customer case.

Comment 2 German Parente 2018-03-07 14:52:16 UTC 
Just to add, in this case the consumer is a read only replica. So, the glue entry is created in the read only replica and it's extremely complicated to be deleted. We have to re-initialize the consumer each time.
Comment 3 thierry bordaz 2018-03-09 08:26:20 UTC 
The creation and handling of the glue entry is not designed for such condition where replicated operation are not serialized.
The focus of that BZ should be failure of serialization.
