tools for upgrading schema
tools for upgrading schema
actually its( a pin to upgrade schema because Fd is too alive ! ;-)
what about adopting the following philosophy : 1/ freezing actual schema 2/ store in FD ( or in flat file) the version of installed schema 3/ when modifying a schema, the ldif file corresponding to diff of schema MUST be generated 4/ when install new version , apply a perl script or a trigger in debian package for update schema
In the same time content of ldap tree could be updated ( change name of attribute eg.) It could be done by a generated perl script based on previous ldfi diff file or trough fusiondirectory-setup
IMHO, this problematic MUST be resolved for none LDAP expert like me

hello
update schema is equivalent to drop all attribute and object and re import it.
the ldif action "replace" could be used for this. in addition, update a schem meean: 1/ find the order number of schema to modified
ORDER_NUMBER=
ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b 'cn=schema,cn=config' cn | grep "{" | grep -r ^# | grep myschema$ | awk -F "{|}" '{print $2}'2/ run fusiondirectory-schema2ldif with -n and -b option fusiondirectory-schema2ldif -r -n $ORDER_NUMBER -b cn=schema,cn=config /etc/ldap/schema/fusiondirectory/myschema.schema > update-myschema.ldif
3/ update schema ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f update-myschema.ldif
see my diff for fusiondirectory-schema2ldif

Hello,
finally we started a complete new project for converting schema to ldif its called https://forge.fusiondirectory.org/projects/schema2ldif
So we have removed the old fusiondirectory-schema2ldif.
we need to write a better tool for creating diff of schema to be inserted into a cn backend based on a ldif
Cheers
