Hi, we are using export/import (LDIF data)... Here shell snippet (PADL=instance_name - we are exporting both NetscapeRoot and rootUser space -> LDAP conf itself and our DATA set). ---8<--- # Get host architecture [[ $(uname -m) = "x86_64" ]] && ARCH=64 # Define path to the Export utility EXPUTIL="/usr/lib${ARCH}/dirsrv/slapd-${PADL}/db2ldif.pl" # Import utility ('-i' accepts file from '-a' switch of Export utility): IMPUTIL="/usr/lib${ARCH}/dirsrv/slapd-${PADL}/ldif2db.pl" ---8<--- Well, i have tried (once) to import rootUser data set into another (test) instance, and it has worked.
