Hi All,

We use 389 Directory as part of our development lab.  Every time when we do a new test, we need to repopulate our 389 directory to a clean slate (i.e. delete all existing data and re-create a base hierarchy tree).

Our current way of doing so is simply using the ldapdelete command to remove all existing data and use ldapadd to re-create the base hierarchy tree.  This approach is okay but sometime it could take up to 20 to 30 minutes to delete all existing data depending on the amount of data saved in the directory.

Is there a more efficient way to repopulate the 389 Directory?

Thanks!

David
