After getting repeat DB corruptions, I finally tracked down the issue to this:

If DB_CONFIG has changed since the last time slapd was started, and slapindex -q is run, the database ends up corrupt.

For example, I did the following with a perfectly happy slapd:

ldap stop Killing slapd with pid 9857 done.

cd /opt/zimbra/openldap-data touch DB_CONFIG /opt/zimbra/openldap/sbin/slapindex -b '' -q -f /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf

bdb_db_open: DB_CONFIG for suffix has changed. Performing database recovery to activate new settings. bdb(): DB_RECOVER and DB_RECOVER_FATAL require DB_TXN_INIT in DB_ENV->open bdb(): PANIC: Invalid argument bdb_db_open: Database cannot be recovered, err -30978. Restore from backup! backend_startup_one: bi_db_open failed! (-30978) slap_startup failed

One of the things this does, is break syncreplication, as it apparently clears out the glue entry. :/
