regarding data backup

[Arunachalam Parthasarathy <arunachalamp@huawei.com>]

Hello all,

I am using openldap 2.3.36.

Is it better to use slapcat to backup the data and use it during recovery (after  disk partition crash) using slapadd ?

Or backup the transaction log files of BDB , so that recovery will be done using openldap’s automatic recovery functionality or dbrecover utility of bdb ?

Please correct me if I am wrong in the process of data maintenance.

Thanks in advance,

Arunachalam.
