RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: 389-ds-base-1.3.10.1-2.el7
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.The `cl-dump.pl` and `cl-dump` utilities now remove temporary files after exporting the change log Previously, the `cl-dump.pl` and `cl-dump` utilities in Directory Server created temporary LDIF files in the `/var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<instance_name>/changelogdb/` directory. After the change log was exported, the utilities renamed the temporary files to `*.done`. As a consequence, if the temporary files were large, this could result in low free disk space. With this update, by default, `cl-dump.pl` and `cl-dump` now delete the temporary files at the end of the export. Additionally, the `-l` option has been added to both utilities to manually preserve the temporary files. As a result, `cl-dump.pl` and `cl-dump` free the disk space after exporting the change log or user can optionally enforce the old behavior by using the `-l` option.

Description German Parente 2019-03-04 09:39:40 UTC 
Description of problem:

cl-dump utility generates *.ldif files in the changelog directory. At the end, they are renamed to *ldif.done but they are never deleted.

And in some cases, these files can be very large which is provoking an issue at a customer.




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: very simple by running cl-dump.pl
Comment 2 mreynolds 2019-03-15 16:36:56 UTC 
Not sure I fully understand what the problem is.   Does the customer want the script to remove existing changelog LDIF files after creating a new one?  So this is a RFE not a bug, correct?
Comment 4 Simon Pichugin 2019-08-29 14:03:01 UTC 
Upstream issue: 
https://pagure.io/389-ds-base/issue/50572
Comment 5 Simon Pichugin 2019-09-03 16:38:09 UTC 
So by default now, we remove ldif.done files after running cl-dump.
And if we specify an option '-l', it will allow us to preserve the files.
Man pages were updated too.
