The PMDF DIRSYNC/DIRBOT utility can be used to run a SYNC_DIRBOT
channel. If no qualifiers are specified, this is equivalent to
$ @PMDF_COM:MASTER SYNC_DIRBOT
Special qualifiers can be used to override the normal operation
of the channel.
Using the /LEFTOVERS qualifier forces the DIRBOT to use any
.OLD LDIF files for directories that do not currently have new
LDIF files present. When a directory update is forced with the
/LEFTOVERS switches, and no cookie is available to send back to a
directory, the cookie value "biscuit" is used. The various sync_
xxx_master channels know about this value and will accept the
update.
The /UPDATE or /NOUPDATE qualifier can be used to control
just which directories will be sent the results of the DIRBOT
processing.
