--- Comment #8 from Quanah Gibson-Mount quanah@openldap.org --- Discussed further with Howard:
There is no dependency on the OIDs within the actual database. So with slapd.conf, you could (and can still) renumber OIDs on a schema file no issue. You can also do this with cn=config based systems if slapd is offline while the schema update is made (which is what was done with Zimbra).
In essence, this means that ldapmodify operations on schema which touch OIDs can be destructive (2 slapds segfaulted out of 12 servers) and also cause slapd to serve out invalid information (at least until slapd is restarted).
