In the Common Settings section, specify a Replica ID.
The replica ID must be an integer between 1 and 254, both inclusive, and
must be unique for a given suffix. Make sure you specify an ID that is
different from the IDs used for read-write replicas on this server and on
other servers.
In the Common Settings section, specify a purge delay in the "Purge
delay" field.
This option indicates how often the state information stored in the
replicated entries is purged.
In the Update Settings section, specify the supplier bind DN or entry DN
that the supplier will use to bind to the replica.
This supplier bind DN should correspond to the entry created in Step 2.
Note that the supplier bind DN corresponds to a privileged user, because it
is not subject to access control.
Specify the supplier server to which you want to refer updates (the other
master in the multi-master set).
Only specify the URL for the supplier server if you want clients to bind
using SSL. In such a case, you must specify a URL beginning with
.
ldaps://
Click Save to save the replication settings for the database.

Replication Agreement.

Agreement from the Object menu. This will start the Replication
Agreement Wizard.
