Restore Master LDAP Server from Secondary???

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Hi All,

I've been happily running FDS (v1.02) for about a year, all fairly good.

I have it configured with a Single Master and one backup/slave server.
Unfortunately after a series of nasty power failures last weekend, the
master is no longer working as expected and after using verify-bd.pl it
seems the database(s) are corrupted. 

I have a backup (on tape), however I was wondering if I could use the
still working (why my users can still auth OK) secondary as a means of
re-populating the master again.

For instance, can I *upgrade* the slave to a master, and then replicate
to the *old* master (once I have reinstalled/rebuilt it). Or maybe
simply dump the slaves data to LDIF and then re-import into the *old*
master.

Does that make any sense??? Just wondered if there was a quick way of
using the secondary to accomplish this, before I start sifting through
tapes...

TIA

Dan
