Re: How to move from hdb to mdb

Thank you Oscar.

Dan also provided a good solution. I think both of them work like a charm.

The problem for me is that i wanted to do it all in a GUI (Apache Directory Studio) which messes up with backend and database or even object indexes.

Anyway now i managed to do that using slapxxx and old good ldapmodify.

Thank you a lot.

Do you know a good policy for increamental backup? I mean i only have now 10000 users but in the future it will really get bigger and i hate to dump the whole database

every night.

Can i have hdb and mdb running at the same time?

I see no problem to have them on different servers.
You can set a new server with mdb backend, import a dump (slapcat(8) + slapadd(8)) and start replicating from your actual servers.

And then, after some testing, you can make the switch between servers.
