Description

While testing the replication configuration in the ApacheDS v2 Configuration plugin, I noticed that changes to an existing replication consumer may not be taken into account.

If I create a replication consumer, save it and restart the server, the replication is correctly set up and an entry is created under the "ou=consumers,ou=system" node.
This entry saves a few values from the replication configuration like the search base, the alias dereferencing mode, etc.

If update the configuration of the replication consumer and restart the server again. The values of the entries are not updated and no longer in sync with the updated configuration.

In that case, I think the replication may fail.

I would be great to have support for editing the configuration of the replication consumers.
