       -a Database directory
	      The full path to the database directory.

       -Z Server Identifier
	      The server ID of the Directory Server instance.  If there is only one instance on the system, this option can be skipped.

       -N     Only checks whether any DNs in the database need to be updated.

       -h
	      Display the usage.
