Hi,

I am encountered a problem regarding the checking of the directory
structure during ldapsearch request. I did slapadd on my LDAP server
(OpenLDAP 2.4.44 with MDB backend) for few entries and found the below
error as my top entry "ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com" was missing from
the DB.

The above error is fine.
Do the above entries get added to the DB, though the parent node for
these entries was not present?

A glue entry will be created for the missing parent, so that the db import can succeed. However, you really should fix your database instead.
