Data export

Use idsdb2ldif to export IBM® Verify Directory server container data to an LDIF file.

You can use the method described here to export data from the IBM Verify Directory server container to an LDAP Directory Interchange Format (LDIF) file.

idsdb2ldif:

Run the idsdb2ldif server tool from the IBM Verify Directory server container to export its data to an LDIF file. Use the following command: 
idsdb2ldif -I idsldap -o </path/to/file_name.ldif>
The previous command exports all existing data from the IBM Verify Directory server container to an LDIF file. If you need to export only a specific subtree (for example, o=Sample), run idsdb2ldif with the -s flag, as shown below: 
idsdb2ldif -I idsldap -s o=Sample -o </path/to/file_name.ldif>
Note:

To import the extracted data, the IBM Verify Directory server container where you perform the import must have the same key-stash as the IBM Verify Directory server from which you exported the data.
