Netscape Directory Server Configuration, Command, and File Reference • May 2002
Generation of a unique ID. Type none for no unique ID to be generated
and deterministic for the generated unique ID to be name-based. By
default a time based unique ID is generated.
If you use the deterministic generation to have a name-based unique
ID, you can also specify the namespace you want the server to use as
follows:
-g deterministic namespace_id
where namespace_id is a string of characters in the following format
00-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx
Use this option if you want to import the same LDIF file into two different
directory servers, and you want the contents of both directories to have the
same set of unique IDs. If unique IDs already exist in the LDIF file you are
importing, then the existing IDs are imported to the server regardless of
the options you have specified.
Specifies the LDIF file to be imported. This option is required. You can use
multiple -i arguments to import more than one LDIF file at a time. When
you import multiple files, the server imports the LDIF files in the order in
which you specify them from the command line.
Specifies the name of the backend to be imported.
Specifies that no attribute indexes are created for the imported database. If
you specify this option and you want to restore the indexes later, you will
need to recreate the indexes by hand. See the Netscape Directory Server
Administrator's Guide for further information.
Specifies the suffix or suffixes within the LDIF file you want to import. If
you use -s to specify a suffix to include, and you are importing the LDIF
file into your configuration directory, make sure that you also use -s to
include o=NetscapeRoot. You can use multiple -s arguments. If you use
both -x and -s with the same suffix, -x takes precedence. Exclusion always
takes precedence over inclusion. If you do not specify -x or -s, then all
available suffixes will be imported from the LDIF file.
Allows you to specify suffixes within the LDIF file to exclude during the
import. You can use multiple -x arguments. This option lets you
selectively import portions of the LDIF file. If you use both -x and -s with
the same suffix, -x takes precedence. Exclusion always takes precedence over
inclusion. If you do not specify -x or -s, then all available suffixes will be
imported from the LDIF file. If you are importing the LDIF file into your
configuration directory, do not exclude o=NetscapeRoot.
