Troubleshooting LDIF Files 39
Using the Novell Import Conversion Export Utility Command Line Interface
To configure error log options in the command line utility, use the -l general option.
For more information, see “General Options” in the Novell eDirectory 8.8 SP7 Administration Guide.
5.2.4 Using LDAP SDK Debugging Flags
To understand some LDIF problems, you might need to see how the LDAP client SDK is functioning.
You can set the following debugging flags for the LDAP source handler, the LDAP destination
handler, or both.
To enable this functionality, use the
-e option for the LDAP source and LDAP destination handlers.
The integer value you give for the
-e option is a bitmask that enables various types of debugging
information in the LDAP SDK.
For more information, see“LDAP Source Handler Options” and “LDAP Destination Handler
Options” in the Novell eDirectory 8.8 SP7 Administration Guide.
5.3 Using LDIF to Extend the Schema
Because LDIF can represent LDAP update operations, you can use LDIF to modify the schema.
5.3.1 Adding a New Object Class
To add a class, simply add an attribute value that conforms to the specification for
NDSObjectClassDescription to the objectClasses attribute of the subschemaSubentry .
