Hello all,
I am migrating to delta-syncrepl and have a couple questions.
I currently back-up my data.mdb file for restore purposes (using mdb_copy).
Now that I am using delta-syncrepl, do I also need to be concerned with the
accesslog data.mdb file in the event of a restore?
What is the sync behavior of a consumer if it is configured to use
delta-syncrepl and the provider is restored but not the accesslog?(i.e. the
accesslog would be new on initial start of slapd after a restore)?
In my understanding accesslog contains changes that should be sent out (i.e. information
that is in the provider database already).
With an empty accesslog anyn ew changes will be sent out after a restore.
Whoever pending changes (before the restore) would be lost. So probably you want to force
a resync-after a restore of the provider.
When done cleverly, no unneeded changes will happen on the consumer.
Details may depend on the reason WHY yoiu need a restore of the provider.
Files in question:
/var/lib/ldap/data.mdb
/var/lib/ldap/accesslog/data.mdb
Thanks for any input,
Paul
