is it possible to take a backup of all the users created in openam, so that I could use the backup to configure a new instance of openam. I am using the embedded datasource for the storage.
Please refer to:
OpenDJ Administration Guide - Chapter 4. Importing and Exporting LDIF Data
OpenDJ Administration Guide - Chapter 9. Backing Up and Restoring Data
By default, OpenAM creates user data under ou=people,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org in OpenDJ if using embedded OpenDJ as user data store.
