localemanager(8)	  BSD System Manager's Manual	      localemanager(8)

NAME
     localemanager — Configure OpenDirectory Server Locales

SYNOPSIS
     localemanager operation [-l localename] [-subnet 1.2.3.4/5]
		   [-server servername] [-i IP address]

DESCRIPTION
     localemanager creates, destroys, and edits OpenDirectory Server Locale
     information.  Locales are collections of OpenDirectory servers to assist
     clients in locating the nearest OpenDirectory Server.

     To use OpenDirectory Server Locales, simply create a locale on an OD
     server with the createLocale operation.  Then add servers and subnets to
     the locale.  All localemanager operations are performed on the local
     OpenDirectory node.

     The first time a locale is created, a DefaultLocale will automatically be
     created as well.  The DefaultLocale will be used for any clients that
     don't match a subnet in any other locale.

     Before a locale can be configured, the server must already be an OpenDi‐
     rectory server.

     Locales can be defined on each of the OD servers or on a single OD server
     in the group of OD master/replicas.  For the latter, the locale informa‐
     tion will get replicated to all of the other servers but locales will
     need to be "enabled" on the other servers by running the command
     localemanager enableLocales.

     Commands:

     help	   Displays the commands and options.

     createLocale  Creates a new locale on the local OD server.	 This command
		   requires the -l option.

     deleteLocale  Deletes a locale from the local OD server.  This command
		   requires the -l option.

     showLocale	   Displays the current locale(s).  The -l option can be used
		   to display a specific locale.  If -l is not specified, all
		   locales are displayed.

     enableLocales
		   Enables the use of locales on an OD server.	This command
		   is automatically run the first time any localemanager com‐
		   mand is run on an OD server.	 Therefore this command only
		   needs to be run if no other localemanager commands have
		   been (or will be) run on this server.

     addSubnet	   Adds a new subnet to the specified locale.  This command
		   requires the -l -subnet options.

     removeSubnet  Removes a subnet from the specified locale.	This command
		   requires -l -subnet options.

     addServer	   Adds a server to the specified locale. This command
		   requires the -l -server options.  If the -i option is spec‐
		   ified, that IP address will be used by locale clients.
		   This may be useful for multi-homed servers to restrict
		   locale clients to a specific network interface.  If the -i
		   option is not specified the IP address(es) will be looked
		   up.

     removeServer  Removes a server from the specified locale.	This command
		   requires -l -server options.	 If the -i option is speci‐
		   fied, only that IP address will be removed from the locale.
		   If the -i option is no specified, all of the server's IP
		   addresses will be removed from the locale.

     Options:

     -l locale	 Locale name.

     -subnet 192.168.0.0/16
		 Subnet specified in CIDR notation.

     -server server.example.com
		 Server fully-qualified domain name.

     -i 192.168.1.1
		 Use this IP address for the server.  Typically used to limit
		 locale clients to a specific interface on a multi-homed
		 server.
