OPTIONS

19       A summary of options is included below:
20
21       -Z Server Identifier
22              The  server  ID  of  the Directory Server instance.  If there is

24
25       -n Backend Name
26              The name of the LDBM database to reindex.  Example: userRoot
27
28       -s includeSuffix
29              Specifies suffixes to be included in the LDIF file.
30

39
40       -M
41              Exported ldif is stored in multiple files. These files are named
42              : <instance>_<filename>
43              By  default,  all instances are stored in the filename specified
44              by the -a option.
45
46       -r
47              Export replication data(information  required  to  initialize  a
48              replica when the LDIF is imported).

69              of the LDIF file that gives the version of the LDIF standard.
70
