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-1.2.10.0-1.el6 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Reindexing (e.g. using db2index) the entryrdn index when there are deleted entries that were converted to tombstone entries in the database. Consequence: Error messages like _entryrdn_insert_key: Getting "nsuniqueid=ca681083-69f011e0-8115a0d5-f42e0a24,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" failed are seen. Fix: The server correctly handles these child tombstone entries. Result: The entryrdn index can be reindexed with no errors and searches work correctly.

Description Rich Megginson 2012-02-08 22:03:26 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/274

Report by Rich:
I have a situation where I have added several entries under ou=people, then deleted all of those entries and ou=people.  When I reindex entryrdn, I do not see all of the tombstone entries in entryrdn, plus I see the following errors:
[30/Jan/2012:20:06:07 -0700] entryrdn-index - _entryrdn_insert_key: Getting "nsuniqueid=ca681083-69f011e0-8115a0d5-f42e0a24,ou=People,dc=vmhost,dc=com" failed: Successful return: 0(0)

    Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the
"Technical Notes" field
    accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content
Services team.

    New Contents:
Cause: In case a non-leaf entry is tombstoned, the RDN starts with nsuniqueid. The special RDN in non-leaf entries was not supported.
Consequence: Inserting/traversing the entryrdn index fails if a parent
entry is tombstoned.
Fix: The special RDN of the non-leaf tombstone entry is supported.
Result: Inserting/traversing the entryrdn index works even if tombstone entries are found among non-leaf entries.
