4.3.1.2. Backing up All Databases from the Command Line

This script doesn't seem to be available/present (I did a find on /usr and a
yum provides) can it be made available/official?
ipa has moved it to under /var/lib/dirsrv

First off, I have opened a ticket to make it clear in the FreeIPA docs what you
should do:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa-guide/ticket/25
Okay, until I get that done, here is the info on what to do for backing up and
restoring the DS in general:
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/8.2/html/Administration_Guide/Populating_Directory_Databases-Backing_Up_and_Restoring_Data.html
There are a couple of different options and scripts you can use, aside from
just importing and exporting data.
Hope that helps!

Hi,
Backing up
I cant find anything in the documentation discussing backing up and recovering
IPA/ldap?....in the past I seem to recall the FDS/389 suggested exporting the
data which was then backed up.....I think there was a gui to do that....
So even if its a case of now its easy just backup /var/lib/dirsrv and nothing
more is needed, it should say so IMHO.
Restoring
Is there a restore process? so with FDS/389 you would import the exported file.
