<title>DESCRIPTION</title>

<para>This tool is part of the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>

<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The format of the Samba Active Directory (AD) database changed in
|
|
version 4.8 and 4.11. When downgrading a Samba AD Domain Controller (DC)
|
|
to a release that is older than either of these versions (e.g. 4.11 to
|
|
4.10), the AD database must be manually downgraded
|
|
<emphasis>before</emphasis> the Samba packages can be safely downgraded.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This tool downgrades a Samba sam.ldb database from the format
|
|
used in version &doc.version; to that of version 4.7. The v4.7 database
|
|
format can safely be read by any version of Samba. If necessary, later
|
|
versions of Samba will repack and reconfigure a v4.7-format database when
|
|
the samba executable is first started.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that all Samba services must be stopped on the DC before running
|
|
this tool. Once the tool has run, do not restart samba or modify the
|
|
database before the Samba software package has been downgraded.
