To setup SHM keys :
1. Calculate and set kernel.shmall and kernel.shmmax (you already have detailed steps for this from the wiki)
2. ldap stop
3. Remove existing cache files
/opt/zimbra/sleepycat/bin/db_recover -c -h /opt/zimbra/openldap-data/ This is being done to clear current MMAP files, so that if and when you roll back you have a clean slate.
3.5 Confirm whether "/opt/zimbra/openldap-data" and __db.* is deleted.
4. Set the shared memory keys in /opt/zimbra/conf/slapd.conf.in
#shmkey shm_key 5.
5. Start ldap.
6. Verify if memory keys are being used:
ipcs -mp (the column CPID is the process ID which is using the shared memory referenced by the key which was set up in step 6)
To Roll back to MMAP :
1. ldap stop.
2. Remove the cache files
/opt/zimbra/sleepycat/bin/db_recover -c -h /opt/zimbra/openldap-data/ (this should delete the bdb cache files)
3. ipcrm [ -M key or -m id ] (to delete files from memory, at this point rebooting should also clear the memory files)******
Skip this if the file has already been removed, but please confirm using ipcs -m or ipcs -mp to check if the memory keys have been removed. If not then user ipcrm to manually delete the shm keys.
4. update config to comment/remove shm keys configuration.
5. start ldap (this should now be using the MMAP files).
