      Hi guys,

      
      I am trying to update the index on our userRoot database.  I
        imported the attribute using the ldif2db routine. Error log
        reports success.

      
      Then I ran the db2index.pl routine with no particular
        attribute 
    
    
      (in essence I guess the whole database is re-indexed) causing
        the database to grow, fill partition up, and crash.

      
    What files are consuming all the disk space?

    
      Tested on another system similar process but this time used
        the "-t" option with the new attribute.  Error log shows
        success.  However, no re-indexing occurred.

      
    How are you verifying the index was not re-indexed?  

    Are you using dbscan to verify that a key is missing that should be
    present?  

    Are you looking at file timestamps? 

    What is in the errors log exactly?

    
      When we import through the console, then add the attribute
        for indexing, the console kicks off a reindex of the database
        with the new attribute selected.

      
      Stats:

      
      Version 389-DS:  1.3.5.10

      
    Can you please do a:    rpm -qa | grep 389-ds-base

    
      Command used to import attribute:

      
      /usr/lib64/dirsrv/slapd-test/ldif2db -n userRoot -i
        /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-test/my.ldif; systemctl start
        dirsrv@test.service

      
      Command to index:

      
      /usr//lib64/dirsrv/slapd-test/db2index.pl -D "cn=Directory
        Manager" -w - -n userRoot (re-indexes all but fills partition
        and crashes)

      
      Second test:

      
      /usr//lib64/dirsrv/slapd-test/db2index.pl -D "cn=Directory
        Manager" -w - -n userRoot -t my_attribute:pres (log reports
        success but does not re-index like it does on console.)

      
      Any ideas on why through console it indexes the whole
        database with new attribute, but not from the command line?

      
    To see what the console does verses db2index.pl you can always turn
    on audit logging, and you'll see what it is doing for each one.

    
    Thanks,

    Mark
