Thanks for the quick reply. My issue is this: Server A has two OUs, call them ou=A and ou=B. Server B has two OUs, ou=A (empty) and ou=C. I want to copy the data from ou=A on server A to ou=A on server B. There are no ou=B entries in the export file from server A and for the import task I add to server B, I set this attribute: nsExcludeSuffix: ou=B When this task runs, it populates ou=A on server B but also completely deletes OU=C Any way around this?
So an "import" overwrites the entire database with what is in the LDIF file. What you want to do is to merge the data. If there are not that many entries in the LDIF the easiest solution is to use ldapmodify to add each entry separately:
For example: $ ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager" -W -a -c -f <your LDIF file> HTH, Mark
Thanks for the additional info on the other question, I guess my problem is that I don't understand the significance of entry USNs at all in 389 server, so I'm not sure how to deal with them in general and especially when it comes to instance migration. _______________________________________________ 389-users mailing list -- 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to 389-users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
