+The image exposes one directory (`VOLUME ["/var/lib/ldap"]`). It both holds the
+database and the configuration (which is symlinked in a pretty hacky way - see
+the `entrypoint.sh` file if interested). Please make sure that this directory is
+saved (in a data-only container or alike) in order to make sure that everything
