Hi,
I need to import sub-suffix into the existing suffix on a running server. When I use:
dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w "$pswd" ldap://localhost backend
import userRoot sub-suffix.ldif
than userRoot is truncated and later import fails with error:
[13/Apr/2021:15:08:41.180921374 +0200] - WARN - import_foreman - import userRoot:
Skipping entry "o=sub,o=suffix" which has no parent, ending at line 36 of file
"/root/sub-suffix.ldif"
One way is to dump existing userRoot and later re-import complete backend:
dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w "$pswd" ldap://localhost backend
import userRoot suffix.ldif sub-suffix.ldif
But that means downtime I'm trying to avoid.
Without code changes, I think this is going to involve downtime.
A possible way to handle this is if you have multiple replicas, you can do the import on a
single replica offline, join it to the topology, and the re-init the data over your other
machines.
Sorry :(
Other import way is use ldapadd but that means that server replaces operational
attributes:
creatorsName
modifiersName
createTimestamp
modifyTimestamp
Is there a way how to import sub-suffix into existing and running server and preserve
those operational attributes at the same time?
Thanks
