ODSEE 11gR1 may store entries with different representations, depending upon the instance being upgraded from DSEE 6 or a later version. When you use an LDAP operation to modify a single entry, ODSEE uses the currently configured format to modify that entry. Entries for which no modifications are done are left untouched. However, the current configuration may differ from what is on disk, and you cannot always modify all entries via LDAP. In these cases, you can rewrite a suffix to convert or upgrade all entries in the Data Base at one time. This is useful, for example, when you want to:
Convert all directory entries in an upgraded instance of ODSEE to the 7.x format
Update all entries in a 7.x ODSEE instance to include new configuration values such as ds-compressed-entries, ds-compression-mode, and ds-entry-crc in the LDIF configuration file
If your server is local and stopped, type:
$ dsadm rewrite instance-path suffix-DN
If your server is running (local or remote), type:
$ dsconf rewrite -h host -p port suffix-DN
You do not need root privileges to run the command, but you must authenticate as a user with root permissions, such as the Directory Manager.
For more information, see the dsadm(1M) and dsconf(1M)man pages.
