[SSSD] using ldb-tools to modify the cache

Hello all,

Is it safe to use ldbmodify / ldbdel to modify the LDB cache in 
/var/lib/sssd/db/ ?  Does the daemon need to be stopped?

Obviously this is only for debugging, etc.  I'm currently trying to track down 
a weird issue where SSSD is losing track of members of an LDAP group (i.e. all 
member attribute values are OK in cache but only a subset or none of memberuid 
values).  I wanted to expire an entry by either deleting it or resetting 
dataExpireTimestamp.

Many thanks,
