NAME

   bak2db.pl - Directory Server perl script for restoring a backup

SYNOPSIS

   bak2db.pl  -a archivedir [-Z serverID] [-D rootdn] { -w password | -w -
   | -j filename }  [-t dbtype] [-n backendname] [-P protocol] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

   Restores a database from a backup. The Directory Server must be started
   prior to running this script.

OPTIONS

   A summary of options is included below:

   -a archivedir
          The directory of the archived database.

   -Z Server Identifier
          The  server  ID  of  the Directory Server instance.  If there is
          only one instance on the system, this option can be skipped.

   -D Root DN
          The Directory Manager DN, or root DN.   If  not  specified,  the
          script  will  search  the  server instance configuration for the
          value.

   -w password
          The rootdn password.

   -w -
          Prompt for the rootdn password.

   -j password filename
          The name of the file that contains the root DN password.

   -t database type
          The backend database type (default: ldbm database).

   -n Backend Name
          The name of the LDBM database to restore.  Example: userRoot

   -P Protocol
          The connection protocol to  connect  to  the  Directory  Server.
          Protocols  are STARTTLS, LDAPS, LDAPI, and LDAP.  If this option
          is skipped, the most secure protocol that is available is  used.
          For LDAPI, AUTOBIND is also available for the root user.

   -v
          Display verbose output

   -h
          Display usage

EXAMPLE

   bak2db.pl  -a  /LDAP/backups/20130305/  -D  'cn=directory  manager'  -w
   password -n userRoot -P LDAPS

          Note: security must be enabled to use protocol LDAPS.  If  LDAPS
          is  not  available  it  will default to next strongest/available
          protocol automatically.

   bak2db.pl  -a  /LDAP/backups/20130305/  -Z  instance2  -w  password  -n
   example -P LDAPI
