No.  Let's take a look at the entry with state information:

ldapsearch -x -D "cn=directory manager" -W -s base -b 
"relativeDomainName=testingstatus,zoneName=OURORG.com,dc=DNS,o=Internet" 
"objectclass=*" nscpEntryWsi

If that doesn't work, let's take a look at the raw database entry:

dbscan -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-INST/db/userRoot/entryrdn.* | grep -i 
relativeDomainName=testingstatus

That will tell you the ID e.g. ID: 10

Then use that ID to look at the raw database entry:

dbscan -f /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-INST/db/userRoot/id2entry.* -K 10
