Hi,

Any ideas how to migrate database from back-bdb to other backend (for example mdb), while using cn=config?
When using slapd.conf - flat config file - it seems to be simple task. But how to do it using cn=config? For sure it is not online operation, and any offline modifications to LDIF config files are not recommended.


use slapcat to dump your cn=config in database 0

	slapcat -n0 -F path/slapd.d -l config.ldif

edit config.ldif and reimport

	mv slapd.d slapd.d.old
	mkdir slapd.d
	slapcat -n0 -F path/slapd.d -l config.ldif

I like to use "-o ldif-wrap=no" with slapcat to enable easier diff of config dumps.

Greetings
Christian
