Today I attempted to restore the dirsrv-admin to a previous version. I used this Documentation, "4.3.4. Restoring a Single Database" from Redhat's web site. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Populating_Directory_Databases-Backing_Up_and_Restoring_Data.html#Backing_Up_and_Restoring_Data-Restoring_a_Single_Database I stopped the dirsrv-admin with: # service dirsrv-admin stop Shutting down dirsrv-admin: [ OK ] I ran the following from the location of the script: # ./bak2db /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-zigzag/bak/2013_10_14_14_14_13/ -n NetscapeRoot [02/May/2016:09:59:38 -0700] 389-Directory/1.2.11.15 - debug level: backend (524288) [02/May/2016:09:59:38 -0700] - Unable to import the database because it is being used by another slapd process. [02/May/2016:09:59:38 -0700] - Shutting down due to possible conflicts with other slapd processes and since it looked like it failed I restarted the server with: #service dirsrv-admin start What did I do wrong? Isn't NetscapeRoot the dirsrv-admin data? Should I plan on doing this after hours when I can stop both servers? If this is the dirsrv-admin then how do I restore it? If it is not the correct procedure then what is?
