So, whats going on here is that the database is being populated, and the VLV indexes are being created. At this point, we wait for the VLV indexes to complete before continuing. We check as to whether the VLV indexes are complete by looking for a particular entry and checking an attribute within that entry. If the entry does not exist, then we sleep for 1 second and recheck. In this case, its clear that something went wrong in the directory server to prevent the index from being created. Unfortunately, there are no DS logs to indicate what that might be. So, there is insufficient information to reproduce this bug. I will, however, add a log message to this code to try to provide more information, should this situation recur.
