Generate LDIF data based on a definition in a template file. For example template files, see the server's config/MakeLDIF directory. In particular, the examples-of-all-tags.template file shows how to use all of the tags for generating values.

-t {file}
--templateFile {file}
| Description | The path to the template file that contains information about the LDIF data to generate |
| Required | Yes |
| Multi-Valued | No |
-o {file}
--ldifFile {file}
| Description | The path to the LDIF file to be written |
| Required | Yes |
| Multi-Valued | No |
--orderedNames
| Description | Order the first and last name values. If this option is included, then the name lists will not be randomized before generating sample data |
-s {seed}
--randomSeed {seed}
| Description | The seed used to initialize the random number generator |
| Default Value | 0 |
| Required | No |
| Multi-Valued | No |
-T {numThreads}
--numThreads {numThreads}
| Description | The number of threads to use when generating entries. Note that using multiple threads eliminates the ability to reproduce exactly the same LDIF file even when specifying a random seed |
| Lower Bound | 1 |
| Default Value | 1 |
| Required | No |
| Multi-Valued | No |
--compress
| Description | Compress the generated LDIF using gzip compression |
-m
--generateModifyLDIF
| Description | Generate the LDIF file as a set of modifications (in a format that could be applied using a tool like ldapmodify or parallel-update) that will replace values for any attribute included in the template. The RDN attribute(s) will be excluded from the set of modifications, and none of the branch entries will be created |
--define {PROP:VALUE}
| Description | Define or override a constant, e.g. "[numusers]", referenced within the template file using the format "constant:value" |
| Required | No |
| Multi-Valued | Yes |
