+.SH "NAME"
+samba_downgrade_db \- Samba tool for downgrading AD databases
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\ 'u
+samba_downgrade_db [\-H] [\-s]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This tool is part of the
+\fBsamba\fR(8)
+suite\&.
+.PP
+The format of the Samba Active Directory (AD) database changed in version 4\&.8 and 4\&.11\&. When downgrading a Samba AD Domain Controller (DC) to a release that is older than either of these versions (e\&.g\&. 4\&.11 to 4\&.10), the AD database must be manually downgraded
+\fIbefore\fR
+the Samba packages can be safely downgraded\&.
+.PP
+This tool downgrades a Samba sam\&.ldb database from the format used in version 4\&.19\&.5 to that of version 4\&.7\&. The v4\&.7 database format can safely be read by any version of Samba\&. If necessary, later versions of Samba will repack and reconfigure a v4\&.7\-format database when the samba executable is first started\&.
+.PP
+Note that all Samba services must be stopped on the DC before running this tool\&. Once the tool has run, do not restart samba or modify the database before the Samba software package has been downgraded\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\-H [sam\&.ldb file]
+.RS 4
+Link directly to a sam\&.ldb file instead of using path in system smb\&.conf
+.RE
+.PP
+\-s [smb\&.conf file]
+.RS 4
+Link directly to smb\&.conf file instead of system default (usually in /usr/local/samba/etc/smb\&.conf)
+.RE
+.SH "VERSION"
+.PP
+This man page is complete for version 4\&.19\&.5 of the Samba suite\&.
+.SH "AUTHOR"
+.PP
+The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.
+.PP
+The samba_downgrade_db tool was developed by the Samba team at Catalyst IT Ltd\&.
