I am migrating from single provider to N-Way provider in OpenLDAP 2.4.56
This configuration was setup years ago and reading the docs has me
questioning this piece of configuration. I notice we have no present
configured on our syncprov overlay for our primary DB setup for delta
sync. I noticed in the docs it explains
dn: olcDatabase={2}mdb,cn=config
You didn't show the suffix of this db, so one can only assume this is your
primary db and not the accesslog DB?
If it is the primary db, then correct, the nonpresentflag should be FALSE,
not TRUE.
As an aside, I would note that setting olcDbNosync: TRUE is exceptionally
dangerous.
Next, I am testing new architecture for N-Way but see that the new
context CSNs generated by those new providers also show up in the initial
provider. If I want to "go back" to my original system state before my
N-Way testing, can I simply delete the ContextCSNs from an exported LDIF
and reload the database? Or is that asking for trouble?
You would need to delete them from the contextCSN attribute and you would
need to modify any entryCSN values that refer to them to only refer to the
original value. If you were single provider, that would likely be #000#.
