290 Netscape Directory Server Configuration, Command, and File Reference • October 2004
Parameter Description
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.
ldifFile 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.
backendInstance 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.
includeSuffix 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.
