Doesn't your slapdcheck also rely on cn=monitor to query LDAP Server?
Yes.
Could you explain to me on a high level how slapdcheck is interacting with LDAP Server?
Besides accessing cn=monitor it reads the currently active configuration from a read-only(!) cn=config and e.g. trys to reach all the provider replicas configured therein, etc.
And in opposite to other slapd exporters it does not falsely assume to only read one gauge/counter per entry in cn=monitor.
Coming from a Prometheus background, when I talk about official exporters I meant the exporters listed by the Prometheus community as reliable and useful on their website.
Ah, I see.
Not sure how much the Prometheus community care about OpenLDAP though.
