Hello,
We have a openldap 2.3.27 database with 42 GB of total data size . The server is running with 32 bit processor
Bad idea. How much ram does it have?
and it crashes once in 2-3 days..
Maybe you should try and find out why, rather than using sticky tape ...
As a work around for now , we are restarting the slapd process using cron job. But the restart takes 45 min to 1 hour time and sometimes more than that. Is there any way to bring up the server fast ?
Depends on your configuration, of which you have not supplied *any* details.
It is taking time to cache data before it start ?
No, most likely, you haven't configured a checkpoint on the database, and so database recovery is taking a long time.
For more assistance, provide all the configuration options that relate to the database backend you are using, and any tuning you have done for the library (DB_CONFIG file, or dbconfig directives in slapd.conf).
