Are you sure that this is really typical? According to the timestamps on its Anaconda logs, my IdM server was installed on July 6, 2023, which really isn't that long ago, and it has a 'bdb' database. I'd hazard a guess that a majority of Fedora-based IdM servers out there are probably older.
User then needs to migrate the data either using the dsctl command or manually by following the https://www.port389.org/docs/389ds/FAQ/Berkeley-DB-deprecation.html#manual-method---export-to-ldif steps
I'm confused. Elsewhere in this thread I see this.

Is the (extremely painful) RHEL procedure required, or can the data be migrated in-place? And if it's the latter, I would suggest that the documentation needs to be made a lot more specific. After looking at the referenced port389.org page, I don't have a clue how I'm supposed to go about updating the database format of a FreeIPA server. (I can't even read the 'dsctl' man page, because it doesn't seem to exist on Fedora 41.) -- ======================================================================== If your user interface is intuitive in retrospect ... it isn't intuitive ======================================================================== -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
