SLAPINDEX(8C)


NAME

  slapindex - SLAPD index to LDIF utility


SYNOPSIS

  /usr/internet/openldap/sbin/slapindex [-v] [-c] [-g] [-q] [-d level] [-b
  suffix] [-n dbnum] [-f slapd.conf] [-F confdir]


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.  Databases configured as subordinate of this one
  are also re-indexed, unless -g is specified.


OPTIONS

  -v   enable verbose mode.

  -c   enable continue (ignore errors) mode.

  -g   disable subordinate gluing.  Only the specified database will be
       processed, and not its glued subordinates (if any).

  -q   enable quick (fewer integrity checks) mode. Performs no consistency
       checks when writing the database. Improves indexing time, however the
       database will most likely be unusable if any errors or interruptions
       occur.

  -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 configuration
       file.  The -n cannot be used in conjunction with the -b option.

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

  -F confdir
       specify a config directory.  If both -f and -F are specified, the
       config file will be read and converted to config directory format and
       written to the specified directory.  If neither option is specified,
       an attempt to read the default config directory will be made before
       trying to use the default config file. If a valid config directory
       exists then the default config file is ignored.


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/internet/openldap/sbin/slapindex
