Also returned all dsconf errors as json objects so the UI could display friendly error messages

You've added the function here and in tools.jsx. But this one is unused in your code... Was it done for some future code?
In the navigation bar on the left, Database unfolds and it has suffixes bellow. Replication doesn't unfold but seems like it has the same structure (you can switch between replication suffixes). I understand that we mostly have one replica entry on the instance but still, it looks weird... What do you think, maybe it will look more consistent if we will have the same unfolding options in the navigation bar? (for Replication - same as we have for Database now)

When I create an instance without any suffix - Monitoring tab is loading continuously so it doesn't work.
Monitoring
In the Logging settings we have - Maximum Log Size (in MB) = 100 - by default. It is much more than 10000 lines (maximum that can be viewed in the UI). Could we have paging here? I understand that it is some amount of work (that we may postpone and create an issue for that) but I think it is necessary if we want our UI to be fully usable.

Also, please check the cockpit API for the working with files - https://cockpit-project.org/guide/149/cockpit-file.html It has some nice features. :)
Besides that, I am really impressed! Besides the good general usability on most of the sections, I like a lot the Replication tab's content with all of this Lag Reports, poking agreements, etc. Great!

I was going to do that, but the problem is that you can replicate random subtrees:
ou=people,o=simon.com ou=staff, ou=employee,o=simon.com
There is no good way to link these replicated suffixes in a tree. It just becomes a list essentially, so a dropdown "list" made the most sense.
In the Logging settings we have - Maximum Log Size (in MB) = 100 - by default. It is much more than 10000 lines (maximum that can be viewed in the UI).
Well you also don't want to load 100mb into memory. I was just "tailing the log" and not trying to use up too many resources. Typically though you would only be looking at last few lines anyway for debugging. You can also goto the terminal nav tab in Cockpit and vi the log if deeper analysis is required. But I see what you are getting at...
Could we have paging here?
Maybe, that would be nice, but right now its just a textarea so I need what option are available...

Yeah this might not be trivial, let me look into it, but we might have to push it off to "Version 2"
I will look into this! I forgot about it actually I know they have a type of file monitoring we could use use for continuously refreshing logs...

Changes made.
I did not add pagination to the log viewing. It is NOT trivial to add, and not that important IMHO. It would be nice to have, and we look into doing it, but it can wait. In the meantime I added a 50000 line option which should be plenty for most cases.
I think it will throw an exception because basedn is not specified. Check lib389/tombstone.py
basedn
lib389/tombstone.py
Besides that, looks good. I am not sure if somebody else from our team would like to check the functionality but you have my ack.
Good to know, but I actually don't use this function in the UI at this time, but I fix it up for future use.
