Re: how do you delete the entire openldap bdb database

[Duncan Brannen <dbb@st-andrews.ac.uk>]

Just curious, but when would you want to have your transaction logs and DB on

Data Recovery and Performance wise it should always be better to have
separate spindles (and another one for your logs if you're doing much logging)

Just thinking of Oracles 12 spindle 'compromise' here ;)
