slapindex(8)

NAME

       slapindex - SLAPD index to LDIF utility

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/slapindex  [-v]  [-c]  [-d  level]  [-b suffix] [-n dbnum] [-f
       slapd.conf]

DESCRIPTION

       Slapindex is used to regenerate slapd(8) indices based upon the current
       contents  of a database.  It opens the given database determined by the
       database number or suffix and updates the indices for all values of all
       attributes of all entries.

OPTIONS

       -v     enable verbose mode.

       -c     enable continue (ignore errors) mode.

       -d level
              enable debugging messages as defined by the specified level.

       -b suffix
              Use the specified suffix to determine which database to generate
              output for.  The -b cannot be used in conjunction  with  the  -n
              option.

       -n dbnum
              Generate output for the dbnum-th database listed in the configu-
              ration file.  The -n cannot be used in conjunction with  the  -b
              option.

       -f slapd.conf
              specify an alternative slapd.conf(5) file.

LIMITATIONS

       Your  slapd(8) should not be running (at least, not in read-write mode)
       when you do this to ensure consistency of the database.

       This command provides ample opportunity for  the  user  to  obtain  and
       drink their favorite beverage.

EXAMPLES

       To reindex your SLAPD database, give the command:

            /usr/bin/slapindex
