Can someone forward a link on how to shrink down the changelogdb, we tried the LDIF method  to create the values but the schema  is not present in the directory to create the object.  Does a better document exist or someone that has come across this same issue let me know.  Thanks in advance.

We are running 1.2.11.15 B2013.357.1711

1) Do you happen to have a plan to upgrade to 389-ds-base-1.3.2 or 1.3.3?  This feature is available on them.

    Ticket #197 - BDB backend - clear free page files to reduce changelog size
    https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/197
    2 config parameters are introduced to specify the interval of the
    compact calls.
    Primary DBs (id2entry):
      dn: cn=config,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config
      nsslapd-db-compactdb-interval: <seconds>
    Changelog DBs:
      dn: cn=changelog5,cn=config
      nsslapd-changelogcompactdb-interval: <seconds>
    By default, 2592000 seconds (30 days)

2) This config parameter "nsslapd-changelogmaxage (Max Changelog Age)" is available in 389-ds-base-1.2.11.  If not set, you may want to consider setting it.
Please see this doc section:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Configuration_Command_and_File_Reference/Core_Server_Configuration_Reference.html#cnchangelog5-nsslapd_changelogmaxage_Max_Changelog_Age
But please note that the physical size of changelog db is not affected by the parameter.

3) If you do export and import back the main data without the state information (without -r option for db2ldif) on a master, and do consumer initialization against the other servers in the topology, the changelog dbs would be regenerated.  But it'd require quite a long down time...
