Re: [389-users] incorrect DNs sometimes returned on searches: 1.2.6 and 1.2.6.1

  Eric,

Thank you for your response.  Just to make sure your db is not broken, 
could you run these command lines and look for any corrupted DIT link 
when the DN corruption is observed?  The outputs should be huge.  So, I 
recommend you to redirect them to a file.  I think we are interested in 
just around "ou=People,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu" and 
"ou=Group,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu".  Since restarting the server fixes 
the problem, (I'm hoping) you don't see any corruption in this level.

$ dbscan -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-YOURID/db/YOURBACKEND/id2entry.db4 | 
egrep "dn:|entryid:|parentid:"
     rdn: dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu
     entryid: 1
     rdn: ou=People
     parentid: 1
     entryid: 2
     [...]

$ dbscan -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-YOURID/db/YOURBACKEND/entryrdn.db4 -k 
"ou=People,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu"
ou=People,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu
   ID: #; RDN: "ou=People,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu"; NRDN: 
"ou=people,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu"
[...]

$ dbscan -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-YOURID/db/YOURBACKEND/entryrdn.db4 -k 
"ou=Group,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu"
ou=Group,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu
   ID: #; RDN: "ou=Group,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu"; NRDN: 
"ou=group,dc=acs,dc=albany,dc=edu"
[...]

Thanks!
