NAME
       ldif2ldap - Directory Server script for adding entries

SYNOPSIS
       ldif2ldap  [-Z  serverID] [-D <rootdn>] -w <password> -f <ldifFile> [-P
       protocol] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
       Performs an import operation over LDAP to the Directory Server. To  run
       this script, the server must be running.

OPTIONS
       A summary of options is included below:

       -Z Server Identifier
	      The  server  ID  of  the Directory Server instance.  If there is
	      only one instance on the system, this option can be skipped.

       -D Root DN
	      The Directory Manager DN, or root DN.   If  not  specified,  the
	      script  will  search  the	 server instance configuration for the
	      value.

       -w password
	      The rootdn password.

       -f LDIF file
	      The LDIF file with the entries to add.

       -P Protocol
	      The connection protocol to  connect  to  the  Directory  Server.
	      Protocols	 are STARTTLS, LDAPS, LDAPI, and LDAP.	If this option
	      is skipped, the most secure protocol that is available is	 used.
	      For LDAPI, AUTOBIND is also available for the root user.

       -h
	      Display the usage.

EXAMPLE
       ldif2ldap  -Z  instance3	 -D  'cn=directory  manager'  -w  password  -f
       /LDAP/ldif/entries.ldif -P STARTTLS

       Note: security must be enabled to use protocol STARTTLS.	  If  STARTTLS
       is  not	available it will default to next strongest/available protocol
       automatically.

DIAGNOSTICS
       Exit status is zero if no errors occur.	Errors result  in  a  non-zero
       exit status and a diagnostic message being written to standard error.
