Single-Master Replication

In this particular configuration the suffix receives
ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
a large number of search requests. Therefore, to distribute the load, this tree, which
is mastered on Server A, is replicated to two read-only replicas located on Server B
and Server C.
For information on setting up a single-master replication environment, refer to
"Configuring Single-Master Replication," on page 292.

Multi-Master Replication

Directory Server also supports complex replication scenarios in which the same
suffix (database) can be mastered on two servers. This suffix is held in a read-write
replica on each server. This means that each server maintains a change log for the
read-write replica.
