db2ldif gets you the text dump of the DB. it is my understanding, at an object level, this gets you a reliable backup of each entry although data throughout the store may be inconsistent while the large file is being written. i can tell you i do this regularly and it seems to work well, but i wonder about what risks i am incurring with this strategy besides what i already noted.
This does the equivalent of a table scan across the entries without isolation. So it is possible to end up with inconsistencies such as an entry without its parent, although the chance of this occurring is low.
