67.3. Parameters for Generating LDIF Strings
The parameters listed below are used to generate a description of an entry as an LDIF string. These are not pblock parameters but flags that are passed to the
slapi_entry2str_with_options() function.
| Parameter ID | Description |
|---|---|
SLAPI_DUMP_MINIMAL_ENCODING | Use the base-64 encoding as little as possible, only when it is required to produce an LDIF fragment that can be parsed. This option is useful for some international data to avoid excessive base-64 encoding. Using this option may produce LDIF that does not conform to the standard. |
SLAPI_DUMP_NOOPATTRS | A flag used to suppress the operational attributes. Refer to Section 67.3, “Parameters for Generating LDIF Strings”. |
SLAPI_DUMP_NOWRAP | By default, lines will be wrapped as defined in the LDIF specification. This flag disables line wrapping. |
SLAPI_DUMP_STATEINFO | This flag is only used internally by replication. This flag allows access to the internal data used by multi-master replication. |
SLAPI_DUMP_UNIQUEID | This flag is used when creating an LDIF file that will be used to initialize a replica. Each entry will contain the nsUniqueID operational attribute. |
