Syncrepl supports both types of partial replication: sparse and fractional
The shadow DIT fragment is defined by a general search criteria consisting of
base, scope, filter, and attribute list. The consumer content is
also subject to the access privileges of the bind identity of the
syncrepl replication connection.
Fractional replication uses explicit attribute lists to replicate only a
