Pdm load

Use pdm_load to load information directly into the database and bypass the GUIs.

Usage

pdm_load -f [filename] [-a] [-c] [-e] [-h] [-i] [-m] [-v] [-r] [-u] [-x]

Command	Description	Remarks
-a	update all matching data
-c	check only, no change to data
-e	treat escapes literally
-h	help
-i	insert only
-m	notify domsrvr of mass update
-v	verbose
-r	remove
-u	update only
-x	use locale sensitive numeric input formats

Examples

• A standard load. This load assumes that the file contains ids or uuids for all entries.

pdm_load -f extract.txt -v

• Using the -i to load data will force the creation of new ids and uuids. The file being loaded should be void of any id and uuid data.

pdm_load -f cnt_data.csv -i -v

• Removing some info (not shared by another application) from a file. Use the -r

pdm_load -f InfoToRemove.dat -r -v 2>load.err
