Getting locks on some of those files would be my main concern. But if you're shutting down then that's not an issue. I think you're covered.
And I agree with your other suggestion. Using replication within LDAP works much cleaner.

Subject: replicated LDAP on IBM i using PowerHA GlobalMirror
V7R3M0 - PowerHA, Global Mirror, iASP
I have a customer that has a requirement to replicate the LDAP server from one IBM i instance to another. I've suggested they merely create the LDAP on the other server and treat it as a second instance but a software vendor is forcing them to replicate it instead. (why, I've no clue other than to suggest they need to understand how LDAP works, but that's another
discussion) So far I've come up with the following procedure:
Save '/QIBM/UserData/OS400/NetworkAuthentication/*'
Save '/QIBM/UserData/OS400/DirSrv/'
SAVOBJ OBJ(QGLD*) LIB(QUSRSYS)
SAVLIB LIB(QUSRDIRDB QUSRDIRCL QDIRSRV2) SAVACT(*SYNCLIB)
The restore them on the target box. This would happen about daily since there is not that much change going on for this application.
The directory server would have to be shut down during the restore, but I can handle that in a script.
Any thoughts about the method? Have I missed objects that should be included? Do you think it will work?
