PingDirectory

Performing an offline LDIF import using a compressed file

Steps

  1. Confirm the PingDirectory server is offline.

  2. To import data from a compressed gzip formatted file, use the import-ldif command.

    You must include the --isCompressed option to indicate that the input file is compressed.

    Do not specify any connection arguments when running the command.

    Example:

    $ bin/import-ldif --backendID userRoot --isCompressed \
      --ldifFile /path/to/data.gz --rejectFile /path/to/reject.ldif \
      --skipFile /path/to/skip.ldif
