Export Suffix Dialog

Use this dialog box to export the contents of the entire suffix to an LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange Format) file.

LDIF file. Enter the full path and filename of the LDIF file, or click Browse to select a file on your machine. If you are running Directory Server console on a machine other than the directory server host, the Browse button is unavailable and you must enter the full path and filename of a file on the server machine.

Export replication information. Select this checkbox if you wish to use the LDIF exported from this replica to initialize another replica. The replication information consists of additional attributes in every exported entry which are used internally by the replication mechanism. Deselect this checkbox if you will not use the LDIF file to initialize another replica.

OK. Click OK to begin exporting the contents of the suffix after confirming that the server has access permission for the given file.

Attribute Encryption

The following fields are displayed only when the suffix being exported is configured for attribute encryption.

Decrypt attributes. By default, the encrypted attribute values are not decrypted in the exported LDIF. Select this checkbox to decrypt the values of attributes configured for encryption. When you chose to decrypt attribute values, you must provide a password in one of the following fields.

Use password to decrypt. Select this radio button to enter the password of the server's certificate database.

Use file to decrypt. Select this radio button and enter the path and filename of a file containing the password of the server's certificate database, or click Browse to find the file.
