If I am storing the schema/relevant files on persistent storage, will /usr/lib/dirsrv/dscontainer be smart enough to upgrade the backend on startup if I have built a new container with a new version of ds-389? In the past, I beleive the installer RPM's were running perl/python scripts to perform backend updates.

Yes, it is smart enough to upgrade on startup. Provided you mount your persistent storage in the same location, it will do all the upgrading for you :)

It's actually the dirsrv binary itself that does the upgrade, dscontainer just knows how to launch it.

Hope that helps!
