It opens the given database determined by the database number or
suffix and adds entries corresponding to the provided LDIF to
-the database. The LDIF input is read from standard input or
-the specified file.

+Databases configured as
+.B subordinate

+The LDIF input is read from standard input or the specified file.
.LP
As
.B slapadd
.B \-c
enable continue (ignore errors) mode.
.TP
+.B \-g
+disable subordinate gluing. Only the specified database will be
+processed, and not its glued subordinates (if any).
+.TP
.B \-u
enable dry-run (don't write to backend) mode.
.TP
+.B \-q
+enable quick (fewer integrity checks) mode. Does fewer consistency checks
+on the input data, and no consistency checks when writing the database.
+Improves the load time but if any errors or interruptions occur the resulting
+database will be unusable.
+.TP
+.BI \-w
+write syncrepl context information.
+After all entries are added, the contextCSN
+will be updated with the greatest CSN in the database.
+.TP
+.BI \-s
+disable schema checking. This option is intended to be used when loading
+databases containing special objects, such as fractional objects on a
+partial replica. Loading normal objects which do not conform to
+schema may result in unexpected and ill behavior.
+.TP
.BI \-d " level"
enable debugging messages as defined by the specified
.IR level .
.BR slapd.conf (5)
file.
.TP
+.BI \-F " confdir"
+specify a config directory.
+If both
+.B -f
+and
+.B -F
+are specified, the config file will be read and converted to
+config directory format and written to the specified directory.
+If neither option is specified, an attempt to read the
+default config directory will be made before trying to use the default
+config file. If a valid config directory exists then the
+default config file is ignored. If dryrun mode is also specified,
+no conversion will occur.
+.TP
.BI \-l " ldif-file"
Read LDIF from the specified file instead of standard input.
-.TP
-.BI \-p
-If the LDIF input represents a syncrepl consumer replica,
-promote it to the syncrepl provider replica after adding
-the entries.
-.TP
-.BI \-r
-If the LDIF input represents a syncrepl provider replica,
-demote it to the syncrepl consumer replica after adding
-the entries.
-.TP
-.BI \-w
-When used with \-p or \-r, rebuild a new syncrepl
-information from the contents of the added entries.
-The syncrepl information contained in the LDIF input
-file is ignored.
-.TP
-.BI \-i " rid1,rid2,...*"
-Specify the replication ids for one or more syncrepl consumer
-replicas contained in the LDIF input. If omitted, 0 is used
-as the replication id.
