Recovering a Replicated NDS Partition
Task 1: Recover the NetWare SYS Volume
To recover a NetWare 4.11 or IntraNetWare SYS volume:
To recover a SYS volume:
1.From the NetWorker server, perform a directed recover to restore the failed server’s Server Specific Info (SSI) files from a tape backup to a functioning NetWorker for NetWare client.
The
Important: For NetWare 4.11/IntraNetWare servers, do not delete the server or volume objects for the failed server from the NDS tree. You do not want to eliminate any references other objects might have to the server. If objects were deleted from the NDS tree, use the NetWare 4.10 procedure for recovering from a disaster.
2.If the failed server held a master replica, use NDS Manager or dsrepair to designate a new master replica on a different server in the replica ring. To determine which replicas were stored on the failed server, refer to
DSMISC.LOG.
53. If the failed server also contained any nonmaster replicas, use NDS Manager or dsrepair on the servers containing master replicas to remove the failed server from the replica ring.
A NetWare warning message appears. Continue with the recovery procedure. For more information, refer to “Backing Up and Restoring Novell Directory Services in NetWare 4.11” in Novell Application Notes, October 1996.
