Invoke data security audit processing in order to identify potential risks or other notable security characteristics contained in directory data. This tool schedules an internal task with the server that examines all or a subset of entries in the server, writing a series of reports on potential risks with the data. Reports are written to the output directory organized by backend name and audit items. The list of available auditors can be obtained using Additionally, the entries scanned can be limited by specifying the backends to scan, or by specifying an LDAP filter that is used to selected entries to be processed. This tool schedules an operation to run within the PingDirectory server’s process. LDAP connection options must be supplied that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time. Once scheduled, tasks can be managed using the |

Back up one or more directory server backends. Each backend backup is stored in a separate backend backup directory. A backend backup directory can contain multiple backups of the backend. Each backend backup directory contains a Each backup can be optionally compressed, encrypted, hashed or signed. A backup taken on one system can be restored on another system. This tool features both an offline mode of operation as well as the ability to schedule an operation to run within the directory server’s process. To schedule an operation supply LDAP connection options that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time. Once scheduled, tasks can be managed using the manage-tasks tool. |

Collect and package system information useful in troubleshooting problems. The information is packaged as a zip archive that can be sent to a technical support representative. Information collected can include configuration files, server monitor entries, portions of log files, JVM thread stack dumps, system metrics, and other data that might be helpful in diagnosing problems, understanding server performance, or otherwise assisting with support requests. Although the tool will do its best to obscure or omit sensitive data, and the entire archive can be encrypted if you desire, you might want to review the resulting support data archive to ensure verify its contents. Further, the archive will include a summary of any potential problems or concerns that are identified in the course of collecting the support data. |

Compares the schemas of two LDAP servers to identify schema elements that might be present in one but not the other, or elements that might be present in both servers but have differences between them. |
||
|
Compares directory server configurations and produces a Its uses include comparing multiple servers for configuration differences, producing a batch file to reconfigure a server from scratch from the out-of-the-box configuration, and comparing a local server against an expected configuration. Both the source and the target configurations can be retrieved over LDAP, accessed from the local server’s file system, extracted from a specific file, or retrieved from every server in a configuration server group. Also, with the exception of accessing a configuration from a specific file, the source and/or target configurations can be compared as they existed at any point in the past, including the baseline, pre-installation configuration. Some configuration differences (those that will always differ between instances, like instance-name) are excluded by default to reduce the amount of spurious output, but these can be included by specifying the This tool attempts to generate a batch file that can be applied to the source server without any errors. However, there are some edge case configurations that the tool is not sophisticated enough to handle. For example, it cannot handle two peer configuration objects that would require swapping values for a property (for example, evaluation-order-index) that must be unique within the server. It will still generate a |

Export data from the PingDirectory server backend in LDIF form. To export data from a remote PingDirectory server, the server must be running and connection parameters must be supplied. You can specify options to include or exclude specific attributes and branches of the tree, and to include or exclude entries matching a given filter. The data can be appended to an existing file instead of overwriting it, and the output can be optionally compressed. This tool features both an offline mode of operation as well as the ability to schedule an operation to run within the PingDirectory server’s process. To schedule an operation supply LDAP connection options that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time. Once scheduled, tasks can be managed using the |

Extracts changes matching a given set of criteria from a PingDirectory server audit log so that they can be replayed (for example, as part of a disaster recovery process) or reverted (for example, to back out changes made in error). This tool is designed to be used in conjunction with the server’s data recovery log files (in the This tool must not be used with a log file that the server can update while the tool is running, or that can have some content stored in an unwritten buffer (which is especially likely if the log is compressed or encrypted). To use this tool with the server online, you should only specify a log file that has already been rotated to ensure that no more writes will be made to that file. If necessary, use the To use this tool to revert an inappropriate set of changes, run it with To use this tool to replay changes that were previously applied (for example, after restoring an old backup or importing an old LDIF file), run it with This tool will extract changes from the selected log file (and any previously rotated files, unless the |

Identify entries containing one or more attributes which reference entries that do not exist. This might require the ability to perform unindexed searches and/or the ability to use the simple paged results control. |
||
|
Identify unique attribute conflicts. That is, it can identify values of one or more attributes that are supposed to exist only in a single entry but are found in multiple entries. |
||
|
Import LDIF data into a PingDirectory server backend. Connection parameters are not required when importing to a local PingDirectory server that is not running. However, connection parameters are required if the server is remote, or if it is running locally and it is inconvenient to have to stop it for the import. You can use the options to include or exclude specific attributes and branches of the tree, and to include or exclude entries matching a given filter. The input file can be compressed. This tool features both an offline mode of operation as well as the ability to schedule an operation to run within the PingDirectory server’s process. To schedule an operation supply LDAP connection options that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time. Once scheduled, tasks can be managed using the manage-tasks tool. |
||
|
Parse a provided LDAP filter string and display it a multi-line form that makes it easier to understand its hierarchy and embedded components. If possible, the tool might also simplify the provided filter in certain ways (for example, by removing unnecessary levels of hierarchy, like an AND embedded in an AND). |

Compare the contents of two LDAP servers. The This command can be used on servers actively being modified, without reporting false positives caused by replication delays, by checking differing entries multiple times. By default, it will re-check each differing entry twice, pausing two seconds between checks. These settings can be configured with the The directory user specified for performing the searches must be privileged enough to see all of the entries being compared and to issue a long-running, unindexed search. For the PingDirectory server, the out-of-the-box

Perform compare operations in an LDAP directory server. Compare operations can be used to efficiently determine whether a specified entry has a given value. The exit code for this tool will indicate whether processing was successful or unsuccessful, and to provide a basic indication of the reason for unsuccessful attempts. By default, it will use an exit code of zero (which corresponds to the LDAP 'success' result) if all compare operations completed with a result code of either 'compare false' or 'compare true' (integer values 5 and 6, respectively), but if the The attribute type and assertion value to use for the compare operations will typically be provided as the first unnamed trailing argument provided on the command line. It should be formatted with the name or OID of the target attribute type followed by a single colon and the string representation of the assertion value. Alternatively, the attribute name or OID can be followed by two colons and the base64-encoded representation of the assertion value, or it can be followed by a colon and a less-than symbol to indicate that the assertion value should be read from a file (in which case the exact bytes of the file, including line breaks, will be used as the assertion value). The DNs of the entries to compare can either be provided on the command line as additional unnamed trailing arguments after the provided attribute-value assertion, or they can be read from a file whose path is provided using the If the attribute-value assertion is provided on the command line as an unnamed trailing argument, then the same assertion will be performed for all operations. If multiple types of assertions should be performed, then you can use the |
||
|
Delete one or more entries from an LDAP directory server. You can provide the DNs of the entries to delete using named arguments, trailing arguments, a file, or standard input. Alternatively, you can identify entries to delete using a search base DN and filter. |
||
|
Apply a set of add, delete, modify, and/or modify DN operations to a directory server. Supply the changes to apply in LDIF format, either from standard input or from a file specified with the |
||
|
Update the password for a user in an LDAP directory server using the password modify extended operation (as defined in RFC 3062), a standard LDAP modify operation, or an Active Directory-specific modification. Unless the password change method is explicitly specified (using the The new password to be set for the user can be specified in one of several ways. It can be directly provided on the command line, read from a specified file, interactively prompted from the user, or automatically generated by this tool. If the new password is not specified using any of those methods, and if the password is to be updated using the password modify extended operation, then the new password field of the request will be left blank so that the server generates a new password for the user and includes it in the response to the client. If no new password is specified and some other password change method is selected, then the tool will exit with an error. The current password for the user can also be specified. This is optional, although some servers might require a user to provide their current password when setting a new one. If a current password is provided (whether given as a command-line argument, read from a specified file, or interactively requested from the user), and if a regular LDAP modify operation is used to change the password, then the resulting modify request will include a deletion of the current value and an addition of the new value. If no current password is provided, then the modify request will replace any existing password(s) with the new value. |
||
|
Process one or more searches in an LDAP directory server. The criteria for the search request can be specified in several different ways, including providing all of the details directly using command-line arguments, providing all of the arguments except the filter using command-line arguments and specifying a file that holds the filters to use, or specifying a file that includes a set of LDAP URLs with the base DN, scope, filter, and attributes to return. |
||
|
Compare the contents of two files containing LDIF entries. The output will be an LDIF file containing the add, delete, and modify change records needed to convert the data in the source LDIF file into the data in the target LDIF file. This tool works best with small LDIF files because it reads the entire contents of the source and target LDIF files into memory so they can be quickly compared. If you encounter an out-of-memory error while running the tool, you might need to increase the amount of memory available to the JVM used to invoke it. The amount of memory available to the JVM can be customized by invoking the JVM with the When invoking the |
||
|
Apply a set of changes (including add, delete, modify, and modify DN operations) to a set of entries contained in an LDIF file. The changes will be read from a second file (containing change records rather than entries), and the updated entries will be written to a third LDIF file. Unlike All of the change records will be read into memory before processing begins, so it is important to ensure that the tool is given enough memory to hold those change records. However, it will only operate on a single source entry at a time, so the size of the source LDIF file does not significantly impact the amount of memory that the tool requires. Note that the tool will attempt to correctly handle multiple changes affecting the same entry. However, because it only operates on one entry at a time, it cannot always behave in exactly the same way as if it were applying the changes over LDAP to a server populated with the source LDIF file. For example, it is not possible to reject an attempt to delete an entry that has subordinates, so any delete will be treated as a subtree delete. Further, not all types of modify DN change records are supported. In particular, modify DN change records are not permitted if they target any entry that has been targeted by a previous change record (for example, renaming an entry that was created by a previous add change record). Finally, it cannot perform other types of validation, like ensuring that all of the necessary superior entries exist when adding a new entry, or ensuring that a modify DN will not introduce a conflict with an existing entry. |
||
|
Search one or more LDIF files to identify entries matching a given set of criteria. |
||
|
Request that the PingDirectory server leave lockdown mode and resume normal operation. While in lockdown mode, the PingDirectory server rejects all requests from users that do not hold the lockdown-mode privilege. Note that the PingDirectory server can place itself in lockdown mode under certain conditions (for example, if it detects a security problem like a malformed access control rule that might have otherwise resulted in exposure of sensitive data). |

Migrate schema information from an existing LDAP server into a PingDirectory server instance. This tool can be used to migrate schema information from an existing LDAP server into this PingDirectory server instance. The source server can be any standards-compliant LDAPv3 server. All attribute type and object class definitions, which are contained in the source LDAP server but not in the target PingDirectory server instance, will be either added to the target instance or written to a schema file. |
||
|
Update an instance of the PingDirectory server to match the configuration of an existing Sun Java System Directory Server 5.x, 6.x, or 7.x. This tool can be used to compare the configuration of Sun Java System Directory Server 5.x, 6.x, or 7.x and PingDirectory server instances in order to identify any differences and update the PingDirectory server configuration to more closely match that of the Sun server instance. |

All items in the OID registry will be examined, and any items that contain the provided string in its OID, name, type, origin, or URL will be matched. If no search string is provided, the entire OID registry will be displayed. |
||
|
Use multiple concurrent threads to apply a set of add, delete, modify, and modify DN operations read from an LDIF file. As with other tools like This tool will keep track of any changes that fail in a way that indicates they succeed if re-tried later (for example, an attempt to add an entry that fails because its parent does not exist, but its parent can be created later in the set of LDIF changes), and can optionally re-try those changes after processing is complete. Any changes that are not retried, as well as changes that still fail after the retry attempts, will be written to a rejects file with information about the reason for the failure so that an administrator can take any necessary further action upon them. |
||
|
Populate entries in one or more backends with attribute values generated by one or more composed attribute plugins. This tool uses the configuration from a specified set of composed attribute plugin instances to identify which entries to update and what changes to apply. It can be used as an alternative to exporting the data to LDIF and re-importing to ensure that existing entries have an appropriate set of composed attribute values. This tool schedules an operation to run within the PingDirectory server’s process. LDAP connection options must be supplied that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time.

Re-encode all or a specified portion of the entries in a local DB backend. This tool can be used to initiate a task that will cause a local DB backend to re-encode all or a specified subset of the entries that it contains. The contents of the entries will not be altered, but this provides a useful mechanism for applying significant changes to the way that entries are actually stored in the backend (for example, to apply encoding changes if a feature like data encryption or uncached attributes or entries is enabled). This tool schedules an operation to run within the PingDirectory server’s process. LDAP connection options must be supplied that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time. Once scheduled, tasks can be managed using the manage-tasks tool. |
||
|
Rebuild index data within a backend based on the Berkeley DB Java Edition. Note that this tool uses different approaches to rebuilding indexes based on whether it is running in online mode (as a task) rather than with the server offline. Running in offline mode will often provide significantly better performance and require significantly less database cleaning, particularly for indexes containing keys that match a large number of entries and have high index entry limit and exploded index entry threshold values. Also note that rebuilding an index with the server online will prevent the server from using that index while the rebuild is in progress, so some searches might behave differently while a rebuild is active than when it is not. An index must be rebuilt if the database already contains data when the index is configured. The backend containing the provided base DN must be a local DB backend. The types of indexes that can be rebuilt include attribute indexes, VLV indexes, and JSON field indexes.
This tool features both an offline mode of operation as well as the ability to schedule an operation to run within the PingDirectory server’s process. To schedule an operation supply LDAP connection options that allow this tool to communicate with the server through its task interface. Tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later time. Once scheduled, tasks can be managed using the |

Sanitize the contents of a server log file to remove potentially sensitive information while still attempting to retain enough information to make it useful for diagnosing problems or understanding load patterns. The sanitization process operates on fields that consist of name-value pairs. The field name is always preserved, but field values might be tokenized or redacted if they might include sensitive information. Supported log file types include the file-based access, error, sync, and resync logs, as well as the operation timing access log and the detailed HTTP operation log. Sanitize the audit log using the |

||
|
Validate a set of access control definitions contained in an LDAP server (including Sun/Oracle DSEE instances) or an LDIF file to determine whether they are acceptable for use in the PingDirectory server. Note that output generated by this tool will be LDIF, but each entry in the output will have exactly one ACI, so entries which have more than one ACI will appear multiple times in the output with different ACI values. |
||
|
Validate file signatures. For best results, file signatures should be validated by the same instance used to generate the file. However, it might be possible to validate signatures generated on other instances in a replicated topology. |
||
