At the command prompt, type the vdmimport command and use the -f option to specify the LDIF
conguration le to import.
For example: vdmimport -f myexport.LDF
After the vdmimport command runs, the conguration of your View Connection Server instance is updated
with the data from the le, and the number of records that have been successfully updated is displayed.
Errors are displayed if some records could not be updated because your role has insucient privileges.
Use the LDIFDE Command to Import LDAP Configuration Data
You can use the Microsoft LDIFDE command to import conguration data from an LDIF conguration le
into a standard or replica View Connection Server instance.
In View releases earlier than View 4.5, you must use the Microsoft LDIFDE command to import conguration
data from an LDIF conguration le. The vdmimport command is not supported in View releases earlier than
View 4.5.
If you have View 4.5 or later, use the vdmimport command rather than the LDIFDE command. The vdmimport
command does not display the large number of error messages that are produced by running the LDIFDE
command. For more information, see “Use the vdmimport Command to Import LDAP Conguration Data,”
on page 65.
Because the LDIFDE command does not update, create, or delete any LDAP records that are not dened in
the LDIF conguration le, it enables you to customize an LDIF conguration le so that only selected
records are aected when you import the le. For complete information about using the LDIFDE command,
go to hp://support.microsoft.com/kb/237677.
Prerequisites
Export LDAP conguration data to an LDIF conguration le. See “Export LDAP Conguration Data,” on
page 62.
Procedure
1 Log in to a View Connection server instance.
Option Action
View 3.1 or earlier
Log in as an administrator and be a member of the Local Administrators
user group.
View 4.5 or later
Log in as a user in the Administrators role.
N You must be logged in as a user in the Administrators role to
import conguration data into the View conguration repository.

At the command prompt, type the LDIFDE command and use the -f option to specify an existing LDIF
conguration le.
For example: LDIFDE -i -f myexport.LDF -s 127.0.0.1 -z
After the LDIFDE command runs, the conguration of your View Connection Server instance is updated with
the data from the le, and the number of records that are successfully updated is displayed.
Error messages appear whenever an existing entry in the repository is overwrien. You can ignore these
error messages. Error messages also appear if a record cannot be updated because your role has insucient
privileges.
