Import Bulk SSO Users

Please note that I have used this approach to import users from a different OID environment. You will have to replace the exact server details for your export/import commands below

1. Export the users from a different environment:

ldapsearch -h SOURCEHOST -p PORT -D cn=orcladmin -w PASSWORD -L -b "ou=production,cn=users,dc=org" -s sub "objectclass=*" >exp_OU.ldif

2. Get the count of users is Source environment

grep "cn=users" exp_OU.ldif
wc -l


3. Remove the authentication rows from the file

grep -v "authpassword" exp_OU.ldif > PROD_OU.ldif

4. SCP the final export file to the destination

Use SCP or SFTP

5. Import the users using bulk approach

ldapadd -h TARGETHOST -p PORT -D "cn=orcladmin" -w PASSWORD -c -v -f PROD_OU.ldif

You may schedule this in background if numbers of users are high.

Put the above command in a shell script and run it:

nohup "bulkadd.sh" > oidadd.log &

6. Verify the count of Users imported.

grep "cn=users" exp_OU.ldif
wc –l

7. Login as a specific OID user and confirm you can login through OIDDAS
