Use the vdmimport Command to Import LDAP Configuration Data
In View 4.5 and later releases, you can use the vdmimport command to import configuration data from an
LDIF configuration file into a standard or replica View Connection Server instance.
By default, the vdmimport command-line utility is installed in the C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware
View\Server\tools\bin directory.
Prerequisites
n
Verify that you have View 4.5 or later. If you have an earlier View release, see Use the LDIFDE
Command to Import LDAP Configuration Data.
n
Export LDAP configuration data to an LDIF configuration file. See Export LDAP Configuration Data.
Procedure
1 Log in to a View Connection Server instance as a user in the Administrators role.
You must be logged in as a user in the Administrators role to import configuration data into the View
configuration repository.
2 At the command prompt, type the vdmimport command and use the -f option to specify the LDIF
configuration file to import.
For example: vdmimport -f myexport.LDF
After the vdmimport command runs, the configuration of your View Connection Server instance is
updated with the data from the file, 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 insufficient
privileges.
Use the LDIFDE Command to Import LDAP Configuration Data
You can use the Microsoft LDIFDE command to import configuration data from an LDIF configuration file
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
configuration data from an LDIF configuration file. 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
Configuration Data.
Because the LDIFDE command does not update, create, or delete any LDAP records that are not defined
in the LDIF configuration file, it enables you to customize an LDIF configuration file so that only selected
records are affected when you import the file. For complete information about using the LDIFDE
command, go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237677.
