NOTE
The LDIF files used for import operations must use UTF-8 character set encoding. Import
operations do not convert data from local character set encoding to UTF-8 characterset
encoding.
WARNING
All imported LDIF files must also contain the root suffix.
To import data from the Directory Server Console, do the following:
1. Select the
Tasks
tab. Scroll to the bottom of the screen, and select
Import Database
.
Alternatively, import by going to the
Configuration
tab and selecting
Import
from the
Console
menu.
2. In the
Import Database
dialog box, enter the full path to the LDIF file to import in the
LDIF file
field, or click
Browse
to select the file to import.
If the Console is running on a machine remote to the directory, the field name appears as
LDIF
file (on the machine running the Console)
. When browsing for a file, you are not browsing
the current directory for the Directory Server host, but the filesystem of the machine running the
Console.
3. In the
Options
box, select one or both of the following options:
•
Add Only.
The LDIF file may contain modify and delete instructions in addition to the default add
instructions. For the server to ignore operations other than add, select the
Add only
checkbox.
•
Continue on Error.
Select the
Continue on error
checkbox for the server to continue with the
import even if errors occur. For example, use this option to import an LDIF file that contains
some entries that already exist in the database in addition to new ones. The server notes
existing entries in the rejects file while adding all new entries.
4. In the
File for Rejects
field, enter the full path to the file in which the server is to record all entries
it cannot import, or click
Browse
to select the file which will contain the rejects.
A reject is an entry which cannot be imported into the database; for example, the server cannot
import an entry that already exists in the database or an entry that has no parent object. The
Console will write the error message sent by the server to the rejects file.
Leaving this field blank means the server will not record rejected entries.
5. Click
OK
.
The server performs the import and also creates indexes.
