referral error while intilizing 5.2 server from 11g, ds5BeginReplicaAcceptUpdates

during migration from 11g to 5.2 when you try to initialize 5.2 server from 11g you got error after initializing that 5.2 server cant accept update becasuse it is in referral mod, you check server and find that server is not running in referral mod(check dse.ldif). you try to modify but still this error is not going away and 5.2 server cant accept update from 11g server.

 

If servers didt start receiving update from other server(referral mode) run following command. this issue can only be fixed after running ldapmodify command. i have tried updating dse.ldif still it was not accepting changes. once i run following command it was accepting all the changes from 11g server or any other server you have initialize this server from.

 

ldapmodify -h servername -p port -D "cn=directory manager" -w <directory manager password>
