Hi Torsten, My ldap box suffered two power outages within 24 hours this week (one caused by the power company, the other by a well-intentioned but unclued cow-orker). On inspection slapd was stuck in a sched_yield() loop. Doing the db4.2_recover fixed it (I actually came across that hint elsewhere, I'll try to remember to go to b.d.o first next time ;)
If there is no note, perhaps add one to the README.Debian that if slapd appears to be consuming all cpu power and this is unexpected, and strace shows its stuck in sched_yield(), then the bdb database is probably corrupt and requires recovery using db4.2_recover. Then you can close this bug and any others like it ;) Cheers, -- Matt
