How to make replica server as primary and run all drivers if master server is down in replica ring
In case someone comes across this question, there should be an answer:
a) Never do that if there is any chance your origin Master will come back. Having 2 Master is Disaster
b) use ndsrepair -Ad -P , Select Partition, Choose 5 (Designate this server as the new master replica) and repeat for all partitions, beginning from [ROOT]
Some considerations about Master Replica:
Keep all Master on Single Server, make it eDir CA, CA CRL distribution point and EBA CA Server (I recommend a VM/Container and make frequent backups of it, saves you ton of issues when there is a need to restore. Make VM backup, eDir backup/restore to me almost always failed)
Good luck
