Usage

Overview

Options

A summary of options is included below:

-Z Server Identifier

The server ID of the Directory Server instance. If there is only one instance on the system, this option can be skipped.

-a path

Gives the path to the database directory. If this option is not passed with the verify-db.pl command, then it uses the default database directory, /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name/db.
