Due to database format changes between OpenLDAP 2.4 and OpenLDAP 2.5 it is mandatory for existing {{slapd-mdb}}(5) databases
to be exported via an OpenLDAP 2.4 slapcat prior to upgrade. They must then be reloaded via an OpenLDAP 2.5 slapadd after
the binaries are updated. It is also advised to determine if the new {{slapd-mdb}}(5) idlexp backend directive and/or
the multival database directive should be added to the OpenLDAP 2.5 configuration prior to import.
It is advised to determine if the new {{slapd-mdb}}(5) idlexp backend directive and/or
the multival database directive should be added to the OpenLDAP 2.5 configuration as well as the exising global
sortvals directive. Configuring any of these items requires that existing databases be reloaded for them to take full
effect. This can be done separately from the overall upgrade from OpenLDAP 2.4 to OpenLDAP 2.5 if desired.
