Is it possbile to use MMR to my advantage to switch over? For example,
take down 1 of the servers, switch the db config from bdb to mdb, and

have the MMR take care of backfilling the mdb entries? Then I wouldn't
have to export to ldif, convert the db, and reimport while possibly
loosing data from the other systems.
I'm not sure what you are trying to avoid here... Slapcat/slapadd are always faster than sync replication. ÂWhy would you lose data from the other server while doing this? ÂcontextCSNs should be preserved w/ slapcat/slapadd, so the server being converted will just catch up using sync replication as before. ÂYou may wish to look at ITS#7427 though. ÂThe fix for that is in current RE24.
