Importing Directory Attributes with DSIMPORT

To import directory attributes with DSIMPORT

1. Prepare the import file or determine the name of the import file and make sure it is in valid format. For example:

   Obj-Class,Common-Name,Mail-Nickname,Obj-Container,Home-Server,
   Delivery-Mechanism,Members,Assoc-NT-Account,Obj-Admins,Obj-Users,
   Display-Name,Given-Name,Surname,Target-Address,Hide-From-AB
   Mailbox,joeh,joeh,Recipients,BERKELEY,0,Corporate,,,REDMOND\
   a-teresa%REDMOND\willh,Joe Howard,Joe,Howard,,0
   Mailbox,annd,annd,Recipients,BERKELEY,0,,,,REDMOND\
   Klein,Alison Anderson,Amy,Devon,,0
   Mailbox,chrisb,chrisb,Recipients,BERKELEY,0,,,,,
   Chris Bauknecht,Chris,Bauknecht,,0
   Mailbox,kimh,kimh,Recipients,BERKELEY,0,,,,REDMOND\v-kimh,
   Kim Hightower,Kim,Hightower,,0
    

2. Type the DSIMPORT command line:

   DSIMPORT /DSA=BERKELEY /BASEPOINT=/o=Litware/ou="North America" /CONTAINER=Recipients /FILE=fromHR.csv
   

   This command imports entries listed in the FROMHR.CSV sample file into the BERKELEY server's directory. The import operation points to the basepoint (which is in the Litware organization and on the North America site) and adds the new mailboxes to the Recipients container under this basepoint. The quotation marks around the site name are necessary because the site name contains a space.
