We're using Openldap 2.3.19 with BDB 4.3.29. I had stopped replication for a few days to figure out some problems in our slave machine... Now I've a huge amount of data to replicate... I was wondering if I should just copy the entire db from the master to the slave. Is it recommended to copy the master DB to the slave? I know that we can copy slave db files to another slave. But I haven't seen anything that says we can copy the db files from the master to a slave. Is this safe or should I just the replica catch up?
There are no differences in the database format between the masters and slaves... If you have different indexing between them, you will have to reindex, etc.
