You can not upgrade openldap as there are a few OS dependencies so the
clean option is to install the new version in parallel.

There is no site level BDII release that includes OpenLDAP 2.4. This
problem only seems to affect people running in VMs. It you are suffering
from this issue you will have to do a manual workaround. If you need a
newer BDII and OpenLDAP 2.4, you can take the packages from the
top-level BDII repo.

The problem is still not fully understood so it is difficult to say. We
have not had any reports that this issue is still there when using
OpenLDAP 2.4. Also, only one or two sites have reported the issue. In
any case, a new site BDII release is being prepared and should be
available in the next few weeks.
