we have a cluster of LDAP servers consisting of one provider and 4 consumer. We're upgrading the os of the systems by proving an replacement system for each of the five systems. Then we stop the slapd on the system that should be replaced, dump the database with slapcat, copy it to new system, switch hostname and ip of both systems. We shut down the old and reboot the new system. Then we slapadd the database on the new system. So far so good...
The options passed to slapadd (and maybe slapcat) matter. In particular, use (or not) of -w and -S are relevant. Please provide more information about what you did.
