Hi List,
I have a request to upload/import only schema ( attributes, no data) and than upload data
(only) from another DS in a new DS ( basic : merge two ldap ds into a third DS new one )
,
I am not aware db2ldif can export db without data and next schema structure as
separate option ?
This is correct. Schema is a configuration component of the server instance as a whole,
and is treated differently as such. The database backends are for db2ldif etc.
I think the concern I have about a request like this is that schema is going to be shared
by both backends. As long as you are happy that the schemas *can* merge between the two
ldap ds into a third, then this is going to be fine.
But if there are schema conflicts or other concerns, you may be better running two
parallel instances.
The other question is if you plan to merge the two databases into one, or run two ldap
suffixes from a single server. Running two suffixes from a single server will be much
easier for you in terms of migration compared to trying to merge two servers content into
a single backend.
First thing would be take the schema of both instances, and compare them to ensure they
can be merged properly. If they can’t, you may be able to make some changes to the schema
to make it work before you import your databases.
I hope that helps,
thank you
