Hi there guys. I was just wondering if there is a tool to convert an ldbm database to the new bdb backend.
HI, I duno about any tools but its very easy to migrate from idbm to back-bdb if you search the archives of few days back you will find a thread in which it was discussed, and i had successfully migrated our openldap to back-dbd. here is the short summary of steps for this.. Migrate to BDB or HDB. Here's the rough idea: shutdown slapd slapcat -f /path/to/slapd.conf -l mydb.ldif vi /path/to/slapd.conf Change your database to a new directory. Read about tuning, cache sizing, and other stuff. Read openldap man pages. Read oracle's tuning docs for bdb. Re-Read openldap man pages. :wq slapadd -f /path/to/slapd.conf -l mydb.ldif Fix permissions on /var/run so the slapd user can write there -- this one is pretty easy restart slapd
