OpenLDAP Data Directory issue

Hello,

For a running LDAP if I delete the data directory still the LDAP is responding to reads and writes without giving any error.

All logins in related to application are working fine.

Is this picking the data from cache or actual data itself is getting stored somewhere.

Can someone please provide his/her technical expertise on this behavior?

Regards
