3.1 version where i are ndexes ?

[Ghiurea, Isabella]

HI List

I 'm testing a  new  389-DS version 3.1 i RH 9 installation, I followed the RH Doc for migration from  version 1.2.3 copy only content and user.ldif , I re-create my indexes with  dsconf but I can not find where are this new LMDB indexes files? ( Iin old 1.2.3 I used the default userroot , but I can not find such userroot db in  latest veersion ?)

Do I need to create userroot directory before or after indexes creation ?

sslapd-db-home-directory: /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-test/db

/var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-testl/db/

w-r--r--. 1 dirsrv dirsrv        75 Feb  5 09:27 INFO.mdb
-rw-------. 1 dirsrv dirsrv 15899 Feb  5 09:27 data.mdb
-rw-------. 1 dirsrv dirsrv      8192 Feb  5 11:16 lock.mdb
Thank you
Isabella

Hi,

with LMDB backend data.mdb contains all data: backends, indexes, entries.
You don't need to create anything yourself.

dbscan can display all sub-dbs:
dbscan -L /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-localhost/db
or you can access individual indexes:
dbscan -s -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-localhost/db/userroot/parentid.db

Hello,
  The above dbstat commands are for RH 10 but when using lmdb on RH 9 you
have to specify you want to use lmdb:

dbscan -D mdb -L /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-localhost/db
dbscan -D mdb -s -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-localhost/db/userroot/parentid.db

[EXTERNAL\EXTERNE:] Re: Re: 3.1 version where i are ndexes ?

[Ghiurea, Isabella]

Thank you for replies , still some confusing see bellow :

dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" -W slapd-testldap backend index add --attr nsaccountlock --index-type eq userroot

Error: Already exists(68)>>
So index is already there but this dbscan says :
 dbscan -D mdb -s -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-testldap/db/userroot/nsaccountlock
Empty database!

Thank you

Isabella

You need to index the attribute after adding the index configuration.  
You can add "--reindex" option to your command. This is also how it 
worked with BDB.
