There's not much to slapadd, I'm not sure what could have been done wrong... I did use the -q option (otherwise it takes untractably long), but there were no errors or interruptions and the database created worked fine for 10 months or so. I distinctly recall there were no log files last year, and I repeated the same procedure Sunday again with no log files at the end of the slapadd. The documentation says DB_LOG_AUTOREMOVE will "automatically remove log files that are no longer needed"; if the db is checkpointed at close wouldn't that make the log file unneeded? I ran 'strace slapadd -q < /tmp/test.ldif > /tmp/slapadd.out 2>&1' There was no log file, and 'grep 'log\.' /tmp/slapadd.out' returned nothing. Running without the -q, the same grep shows open("/tmp/test/log.0000000001", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 4 Evidentally the -q option to slapadd bypasses logging?
