248 Netscape Directory Server Configuration, Command, and File Reference • August 2002
Parameter Description
backendInstance Instance to be imported. Ensure that you specify an instance
that corresponds to the suffix contained by the LDIF file
because otherwise the data contained by the database is
deleted and the import fails.
includeSuffix Suffixes to be included or to specify the subtrees to be
included if -n has been used.
excludeSuffix Suffixes to be included.
ldifFile Names of the input ldif files. When you import multiple files,
they are imported in the order in which you specify them on
the command line.
Request that only the core db is created without attribute
indexes.
string 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.
namespaceId Generates a namespace ID as a name-based unique ID. This
is the same as specifying the -g deterministic option.
Merge chunk size.
