how to create new partitions programmatically w/out writing java code?
I would like to create a new partition programmatically, ideally using
something like the commandline tool ldapadd, to create a new partition. Is
there any way to do this w/out writing java code? alternately is there any
way to prepopulate a partition in a new ldap instance by putting a copy of
a partition database?

You should see the partition in the namingContexts, in the rootDSE. But
if you don't inject the associated contextEntry, you won't see anything
in your tree.
The partition is just the container, but it contains nothing whn you
create it. the contextEntry is the root of your partition, and it's the
very first entry you will see.
Have you read
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/basic-ug/1.4.3-adding-partition.html ?

Hello Emmanuel,
I have not been successful trying to add the partition.
I have added the text you specified, minus the line
"ads-contextentry:: <The context entry as a valid LDIF file, base64
encoded>"
and I still don't see the new partition. I apologize for my lack of
knowledge about ldap, I am just getting started.
I feel that i am likely missing something very basic

You don't even have to add this entry in the LDIF file.
You can just start the server, and add teh context entry with an LDAP
add operation.

You need to declare the partition in the configuration file.
Either you do that with Studio, or you modify the config.ldif file and add those elements into it :
dn: ads-partitionId=foobar,ou=partitions,ads-directoryServiceId=default,ou=config
objectclass: top
objectClass: ads-base
objectclass: ads-partition
objectclass: ads-jdbmPartition
ads-partitionSuffix: dc=foobar,dc=com

Hello again friends in apacheds
when i attempt to add the following new partition with ldapadd, I get an
error
# foobar.ldif
dn: dc=foobar,dc=com
objectclass: domain
objectclass: top
dc: foobar
-bash-4.1# ldapadd -H ldap://localhost:10389 -D 'uid=admin,ou=system' -w
'xxxxxx' -f instances/default/conf/foobar.ldif
adding new entry "dc=foobar,dc=com"
ldap_add: No such object (32)
additional info: NO_SUCH_OBJECT: failed for MessageType :
ADD_REQUEST
Message ID : 2
Add Request :
Entry
dn[n]: dc=foobar,dc=com
objectclass: domain
objectclass: top
dc: cyclecloud
: ERR_268 Cannot find a partition for dc=foobar,dc=com
Is there something else I need to create first in order to create a new
partition?
