Ok, thanks for your answer Cyrille. Unfortunately, I'm not an OpenLDAP
guru, so I googled around a bit and found a lot of Zimbra
answers. But I searched for shm in the admin guide and found this:

http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/guide.html

Example:
        olcDbShmKey: 42

As I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, I backed up my database (on a
single OpenLDAP, not replicated) and I entered

olcDbShmKey: 42

into:

/etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase={1}hdb.ldif

It seems to work: 

drwxr-x---  2 openldap openldap     4096 2013-11-07 13:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 61 root     root         4096 2013-10-26 10:35 ..
-rw-r-----  1 openldap openldap     4096 2013-11-07 13:32 alock

-rw-r-----  1 openldap openldap    98304 2013-10-19 21:42
objectClass.bdb

But as I'm not knowing exactly what I'm doing, just a simple question:
Is this correct or not?
