Hello, thanks a lot for your info. > You need to cleanly shut down slapd before rebooting. And/or fix your init > scripts to correctly shut down slapd when rebooting.
Due to windows OS i cannot make sure that slapd.exe is not killed, after 40 secs at shutdown every process gets killed. > Otherwise, you should > be performing a db_recover *prior* to starting slapd after such a reboot, > and you may have lost data, and certainly the database is likely not in a > good state. I searched the list and found several different informations to db_recover. In older versions it was not advised to do a manual db_recover. Can db_recover still harm a consistent database (I use db-5.1.25.NC / hdb)? To be more precise, should I try to find out, if a unclean shutdown occured and then db_recover manually or can I db_recover with the 5.1.25 DB and Openldap 2.4.26 at every startup? Regards, Frank
