Hi,
I have a doubt in the difference of contextCSN of two OpenLDAP servers where one is installed with BDB backend (version 2.4.11) and the other one is installed with MDB backend (version 2.4.44). An LDIF entry "dn: ou=grp_71,ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com" was already existing in both the DBs. The following two LDIF entries were added again using slapadd with -w option enabled. dn: ou=grp_71,ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com [ Old entry ] dn: ou=alpha,ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com [ New entry ] In BDB backend LDAP server, contextCSN gets updated with the latest added entryCSN ( i.e. entryCSN of "dn: ou=alpha,ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com"). But in MDB backend LDAP server, contextCSN doesn't get updated with the latest added entryCSN. Rather it still has the old entryCSN value ( i.e. entryCSN of "dn: ou=grp_71,ou=people,dc=my-domain,dc=com") Please let me know, why is it so? Is this correct?
Below is the short dump of slapcat from both the servers. ################################################### BDB backend (version 2.4.11) ################################################### dn: dc=my-domain,dc=com dc: my-domain objectClass: dcObject objectClass: organization o: my-domain structuralObjectClass: organization entryUUID: 3a896474-dba7-1035-95f9-abdba6d92f92 creatorsName: cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com createTimestamp: 20160711113452Z entryCSN: 20160711113452.876767Z#000000#000#000000 modifiersName: cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com modifyTimestamp: 20160711113452Z contextCSN: 20160711113900.374218Z#000000#000#000000
