Hi Quanah,
I got a question about your blog about MMR. You wrote:
Add the syncprov and accesslog overlays to the existing primary database. Note that it will be renumber from dn: olcDatabase={2}mdb,cn=config to dn: olcDatabase={3}mdb,cn=config
But you did not explain why you renumber the entry. Could you do tell me the reason ehy you did this?
Hi Stefan,
Two reasons:
a) Just to demonstrate the way in which cn=config can be used to re-number items.
b) If you use the null suffix (suffix "" with slapd.conf or an empty olcSuffix: attribute with cn=config), other databases must be delcared first. I spent most of the last 13 years working with a DB like that, so I tend to organize my configs to support that setup.
Regards, Quanah
