samba - Jan 2021 - Question about LMDB

If I would like to change to the LMDB backend but I'm already having one
or more DCs, can I join a new DC with LMDB-backend and then rejoin the
old DCs step by step with LMDB as backend?

I think it's not a very good idea to let one or more DCs with TDB as
backend, because size matters :-)

Yes, this is the correct approach.  There is no conversion script to do
it in-place, you must re-join.
