Index Problems

Hello,

I'm using Sun One Directory Server 5.2 patch 3. I have been experiencing some troubles with indexes for several weeks now.

I have a directory structure made of Groups (groupOfUniqueNames) and Persons. Groups have uniqueMember attributes whose value matches some other group Dn or person Dn.

Here is an example where Group2 is member of Group1

dn=cn=Group1,ou=groups,ou=business,....

cn=Group1

uniqueMember=cn=Group2,ou=groups,ou=business...

...

uniqueMember column is indexed (equality, presence, substring, approximate).

After several days updating and reading directory, my searches on uniqueMember criteria don't return the expected results. In fact, some indexes seem to have disappeared or to have been corrupted.

If a reindex the directory, everything is OK... but one week later... same problems.

2 Questions :

- what can cause this problem ?

- does patch4 solve this issue ?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

Jos?
