Title : LDAP Bulk Update/Replication Protocol
Author(s) : R. Harrison, J. Sermersheim
Filename : draft-rharrison-lburp-00.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 14-Oct-99
The protocol described in this document allows an LDAP client (a
genuine client or an LDAP server acting as a client) to perform a
bulk update to a replica on an LDAP server using standard LDAP
update operations encapsulated within the LDUP Update Transfer
Protocols described in [LDUP MODEL] and [LDUP RUP]. The protocol may
be used to initialize all of the entries in an LDAP replica or to
incrementally change the existing entries in an LDAP replica. It is
suitable for client utilities that need to efficiently initialize a
replica with many entries or efficiently make a substantial set of
update changes to a replica. It is also suitable as a protocol for
replication between a single master replica and its slave replicas.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
