Good day OpenLDAP folks. I am looking to upgrade our current OpenLDAP to
the latest 2.6 release from my current install of 2.4.44. I am wondering
if:
1) Is it possible to have one master running 2.4.44 and another running
the latest 2.6 replicating to each other?
2) Is replication possible between hosts that have a mixture of:
a) slapd.conf & cn=config
b) hdb and mdb
It will depend somewhat on what you're replicating. If your 2.6 cn=config
has 2.6 specific config options, then you cannot replicate cn=config.
There's no such thing as "slapd.conf" replication. If you're not
replicating configurations, just the primary hdb/mdb database, the it
doesn't matter if one set of systems is using cn=config and the other set
is using slapd.conf.
The way in which the underlying database is stored (hdb/mdb) does not
matter in terms of replication, because what's replicated are LDIF
operations, not binary data.
