Translates the contents of an LDIF file from the format for a Sync Source to the format of the Sync Destination using the filtering and mapping criteria defined for Sync Classes in the specified Sync Pipe.
The translate-ldif command is typically used to convert an LDIF file exported from a Sync Source directory instance into the corresponding LDIF that can be imported into the Sync Destination directory. Entries and attributes that are not synchronized are filtered out. Attributes and DNs are mapped according to the mappings defined in the matching Sync Class.
