If you want to guarantee that db_recover -c will function, then this is pretty close to how it works out in practice. See

I'm not sure how to reconcile that one with the advice in Database and log file archival http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/transapp/a... It says you only need archive the last logfile.
You need to stop slapd first though. Or sync to another slapd, then stop and backup that slapd's database.
