Using the DirXML Command Line Utility

The DirXML Command Line Utility provides access to all DirXML subverbs and allows you to perform common driver management tasks, such as starting and stopping a driver, from the command line. It's installed with Identity Manager, but also works with DirXML 1.x implementations.

Although we recommend using iManager to administer Identity Manager, the DirXML Command Line Utility is another option available to perform common operations. You can use the utility in an interactive mode or in a pure command line mode.

The utility and scripts are installed on all platforms during the Identity Manager installation. The utility is installed to the following locations:

Windows: \Novell\Nds\dxcmd.bat

NetWare: sys:\system\dxcmd.ncf

UNIX: /usr/bin/dxcmd
