Hello Janelle,

I am very sorry to hear about your troubles. Would you be still OK with helping 
us (mostly Ludwig and Thierry) investigate what is the root cause of the 
instability of the replication agreements? This is obviously something that 
should not be happening at this rate as in your deployment, so I would really 
like to be able to identity and fix this issue in the 389 DS.
