I didn't see that; my last understanding was that it was deprecated in 2.4 and was going to be removed in 2.5. Sweet, that means I can push off dealing with the conversion for much longer :).Just FWIW, we also have the configs for our different OpenLDAP databases on various servers under git version control. This provides us with a critical, time-stamped audit trail and documentation for all changes along with a fast, reliable method for reverting to earlier configs should it become necessary.We would very much hate to lose that audit-trail & documentation and control. ;-)
as has been said before several times. There is no reason to lose your ability to put your configs into version control when you move to cn=config. - You can check the output from slapcat -n0 into your vcs. - You can revert to an older configuration from your version control by using slapadd -n0. - You can use ldapdiff between old and new versions and generate deltas that you could apply with ldapmodify. - etc ...
