Greetings,
I have two computers with these:-
host 1: --cpu amd64 3 cores --os blfs linux-3.10.24, openldap-2.4.33 with bdb backend
host 2: --cpu amd64 3 cores --os blfs linux-3.10.24, openldap-2.4.33 with sql backend
QUESTION: can I replicate these databases over each host (in other words can I for example do N-ray multimaster syncrepl ( http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html ) or another type of replication in view of the different backends ?
See slapd-sql(5) on the backend limitations and the appropriate odbc documentation. In fact replication between back-{hdb|mdb} and back-sql is not recommended. Depending on your requirements you may think of including back-sql as subordinate database and replicate by means of the sql-database specific procedures, and only replicate back-{hdb|mdb} by syncrepl.
