esfadmin [options] subcmd [keyword=value | keyword]...
Used to update the security definitions in active External Security Managers. It calls the Enterprise Server External Security Facility (ESF) to submit requests.
The options are:
| -a | Do not audit. By default, esfadmin sends audit information for each request to the ESF Audit Facility. |
| -cconfig file | Specifies the name of a configuration file for the MLDAP ESM Module. This is a text file, in the same format as the "Configuration
Information" area in the Security Manager definition.
Usage: esfadmin -cldap-config.txt where ldap-config.txt contains: [LDAP] base=CN=Micro Focus, CN=Program Data, DC=mycorp,DC=com |
| -uESF user | A valid ES account that is being used to sign on to the ESF. The default is:
SYSAD

| -pESF password. | The associated password. The default is: SYSAD |
| -UESM user | A valid username for the External Security Manager; for example, with MLDAP, a user account with appropriate access to the
LDAP repository.
If this is not supplied, then for commands other than the LIST commands, esfadmin prompts for the ESM username. (For LIST commands, esfadmin lets the ESM module use its default credentials. |
| -PESM password | The associated password.
If this is not supplied, then for commands other than the LIST commands, esfadmin prompts for a password. |
| -Sserver URL | Specifies the connection path for the LDAP server.

| -ooptions file | Specifies the relative or absolute path and file name that contains the options to be used with the esfadmin command. Values
containing spaces must be quoted. Options must be delimited with spaces and/or newlines. The options file can only contain
esfadmin options, it cannot be used for positional parameters - command names or name=value pairs. The options file is typically
used to contain sensitive data such as the ESM password, or to simplify scripting a set of commands.
