The DB_CONFIG file directives sometimes change names across BDB release. Without knowing what BDB release your OpenLDAP is linked to, no one can be certain your DB_CONFIG file is valid.
My personal suggestion would be to slapcat your server, and then import that DB into a testing server, and validate your changes before deploying them on production. 

You may also want to read over my old notes for BDB at:

I would note that the MDB backend is recommended for modern OpenLDAP deployments.
