etautil Batch Utility

You use the etautil batch utility to perform the same tasks as you do with the Provisioning Manager, but from a command line interface. This utility is especially useful for performing repetitive and time-consuming tasks. This chapter explains etautil and provides examples of its use.

Note: etautil sometimes uses the original terminology associated with eTrust Admin, such as namespace and policy, instead of endpoint type and account template. This occurs when you use actual LDAP schema items (object class names, attribute names, attribute values) which retain the original terminology for backwards compatibility. However, etautil also allows the use of user-friendly attribute names as specified in parser tables. These names use the new Identity Manager terminology.
