Re: incomplete slapcat output

Hi

> .. dumping your entire DB via ldapsearch to an LDIF file.

I did this via:

ldapsearch -LLL -x -W \
-D "my_rootdn" "objectClass=*" > all-dap-info

then copied this file to a sles9 test server and on that test server

stopped ldap
cleared out all files in /var/lib/ldap
slapadd -l /path/to/all-dap-info
started ldap

And my own account/password, which I changed before making this transition, worked on a test client set to auth against the test server. slapcat also now sees the entries that it did not see before. I guess that is all good news. I've got no way to know if all the passwords are the most current ones (from the users standpoint) I guess, and I lost the last changed time info too.

After doing so I get this in /var/lib/ldap/

# db_stat -l
40988   Log magic number.
8       Log version number.
32KB    Log record cache size.
0600    Log file mode.

299KB 531B      Log bytes written.
        Log bytes written since last checkpoint.
99      Total log file writes.
1       Total log file write due to overflow.
98      Total log file flushes.
1       Current log file number.
306707 Current log file offset.
1       On-disk log file number.
306707 On-disk log file offset.
1       Max commits in a log flush.
0       Min commits in a log flush.
96KB    Log region size.
0       The number of region locks granted after waiting.
1361    The number of region locks granted without waiting.

Does that look kind of what it should (there are 81 entries in the ldap db)

What cron entries running db_something, or DB_CONFIG settings, should I use to keep the DB in good order, up to date, even in case of a power outage, given my relatively small, ldap DB?

And thanks for answers so far.
