.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.LP
|
|
.B Slapcat
|
|
is used to generate an LDAP Directory Interchange Format
|
|
(LDIF) output based upon the contents of a
|
|
.BR slapd (8)
|
|
database.
|
|
It opens the given database determined by the database number or
|
|
suffix and writes the corresponding LDIF to standard output or
|
|
the specified file.
|
|
Databases configured as
|
|
.B subordinate
|
|
of this one are also output, unless \fB-g\fP is specified.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The entry records are presented in database order, not superior first
|
|
order. The entry records will include all (user and operational)
|
|
attributes stored in the database. The entry records will not include
|
|
dynamically generated attributes (such as subschemaSubentry).
|
|
.LP
|
|
The output of slapcat is intended to be used as input to
|
|
.BR slapadd (8).
|
|
The output of slapcat cannot generally be used as input to
|
|
.BR ldapadd (1)
|
|
or other LDAP clients without first editing the output.
|
|
This editing would normally include reordering the records
|
|
into superior first order and removing no-user-modification
|
|
operational attributes.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-a " filter"
|
|
Only dump entries matching the asserted filter.
|
|
For example
|
|
|
|
slapcat -a \\
|
|
"(!(entryDN:dnSubtreeMatch:=ou=People,dc=example,dc=com))"
|
|
|
|
will dump all but the "ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" subtree
|
|
of the "dc=example,dc=com" database.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-b " suffix"
|
|
Use the specified \fIsuffix\fR to determine which database to
|
|
generate output for. The \-b cannot be used in conjunction
|
|
with the
|
|
.B \-n
|
|
option.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-c
|
|
Enable continue (ignore errors) mode.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-d " level"
|
|
Enable debugging messages as defined by the specified
|
|
.IR level ;
|
|
see
|
|
.BR slapd (8)
|
|
for details.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-f " slapd.conf"
|
|
Specify an alternative
|
|
.BR slapd.conf (5)
|
|
file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-F " confdir"
|
|
specify a config directory.
|
|
If both
|
|
.B -f
|
|
and
|
|
.B -F
|
|
are specified, the config file will be read and converted to
|
|
config directory format and written to the specified directory.
|
|
If neither option is specified, an attempt to read the
|
|
default config directory will be made before trying to use the default
|
|
config file. If a valid config directory exists then the
|
|
default config file is ignored.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-g
|
|
disable subordinate gluing. Only the specified database will be
|
|
processed, and not its glued subordinates (if any).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-l " ldif-file"
|
|
Write LDIF to specified file instead of standard output.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-n " dbnum"
|
|
Generate output for the \fIdbnum\fR\-th database listed in the
|
|
configuration file. The
|
|
.B \-n
|
|
cannot be used in conjunction with the
|
|
.B \-b
|
|
option.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-o " option[=value]"
|
|
Specify an
|

|
|
.BR value .

|
|
.LP
|
|
.nf
|
|
syslog=<subsystems> (see `\-s' in slapd(8))
|
|
syslog-level=<level> (see `\-S' in slapd(8))
|
|
syslog-user=<user> (see `\-l' in slapd(8))
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-s " subtree-dn"
|
|
Only dump entries in the subtree specified by this DN.
|
|
Implies `-b subtree-dn' if no
|
|
.B \-b

|
or

.B \-n
|
|
option is given.

.SH LIMITATIONS
|
|
In general, your
|
|
.BR slapd (8)
|
|
should not be running (at least, not in read-write
|
|
mode) when you do this to ensure consistency of the database.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
|
To make a text backup of your SLAPD database and put it in a file called
|
|
.BR ldif ,
|
|
give the command:
|
|
.LP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.ft tt
|
|
SBINDIR/slapcat -l ldif
|
|
.ft
