SLAPINDEX(8C)                                                                                  SLAPINDEX(8C)



NAME
       slapindex - SLAPD index to LDIF utility

SYNOPSIS
       /BinaryCache/OpenLDAP/OpenLDAP-106~5/Root/usr/sbin/slapindex  [-v] [-c] [-g] [-q] [-d level] [-b suf-fix] suffix]
       fix] [-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  try-ing trying
              ing 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:

            /BinaryCache/OpenLDAP/OpenLDAP-106~5/Root/usr/sbin/slapindex
