Hi team,
This is my first time to post a question. Please forgive me if I am making miss-posting.
I have a big ldap master which is based on openldap-2.4.33. The mdb file size is 50 GB.
In order to setup an replica server quickly, can we copy the mdb and config to the replica server?
files: data/ldap/mdb/db/data.mdb data/ldap/config/cn=config data/ldap/config/cn=config/....
Thank you very much, Takashi.
Takashi,

You should have posted the config ...
But I think, this in not the case. How should the two servers know about each other? Please read the provides documentation about how to configure the syncrepl provider and consumer http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html

His question was if it is ok to copy the database from a provider to a replica in order to "quick load" it. There's certainly nothing wrong with doing that (for the MDB db).

Because he wrote "copy the mdb _and config_ to the replica server" I did understand it differently.

For data this obviously right.

Generally, you can use the mdb_copy utility.
