View changelog entries using ldapsearch.
All records in the changelog are immediate children of the
cn=changelog entry and are named with the
changeNumber
attribute. Changes are represented in the form documented
in the draft-good-ldap-changelog
specification with the
targetDN
attribute providing the distinguished name (DN) of the updated
entry, the changeType
attribute providing the type of operation
(add
, delete
, modify
, or
modDN
), and the changes attribute providing a base64-encoded
representation of the attributes included in the entry (for add
operations) or the changes made (for modify
operations) in LDIF form. View
the changes by decoding the encoded value using the base64
decode utility. The UnboundID LDAP SDK for Java also provides support for parsing changelog
entries.
