slapadd going for a very long time

Hi all,

I realize that the versions to which I am going to refer are somewhat deprecated so please bear with me..... 2.2.13 I'm running RHEL4 and am bound by policy to only use RHEL4 packages so this is why I am only using v2.2.13.

Anyway...

I need to add a new slave to the pool of LDAP servers. I ran slapcat -l /tmp/myfile.ldif on the master.

Then copied the resultant ldif to the new slave.

Then ran slapadd -v -l myfile.ldif

myfile.ldif is ~250MB and the source LDAP directory contains # numEntries: 427839

I started the slapadd 20 hours ago and it is still running....

Is this normal, given the number of entries?

Machine is Dell Poweredge 1750 Xeon 2.4GHz X 2 1024MB RAM 36GB RAID5

Thankx

M
