Directory Server 6.2 upgrade to 6.3: import LDIF problem

Hi all,
I have tried upgrading my Directory Server 6.2 to version 6.3 because of the database integrity issues as stated in:
http://blogs.sun.com/dsee/entry/directory_server_6_2_database
I have followed the steps defined in this article:
1. Shut down each directory server instance, as described in Starting, Stopping, and Restarting a Directory Server Instance.
2. Perform an LDIF export of the database, as described in Backing Up to LDIF.
3. Install the hotfix for bug 6642430 on Directory Server 6.2, or upgrade your Directory Server 6.2 instance to Directory Server 6.3 once Directory Server 6.3 is available for download (early April). You will need to login to Sunsolve in order to see this bug description.
But when importing the LDIF export, I got the following error:
[17/Dec/2008:14:44:08 +0100] - import ec: WARNING: Skipping entry "sunPortalAdminPortalDomainPortalServerInstanceMonitoringID=Monitoring,sunPortalAdminPortalDomainPortalServerInstanceID=sol10portal-80,sunPortalAdminPortalDomainPortalID=portal1,sunPortalAdminPortalDomainID=defaultDomain,o=example" whichIt's the only information I get about why the entry was skipped (I did not forget to copy the part after 'which', there was no information there :-))
This resulted in a missing Portal instance configuration and thus I got a 'configuration error' when surfing through the gateway to the portal.
I have also tried: manually importing that entry, which resulted in a 'Object does not exist' error. I have tried copying the whole tree from another backup with identical setup, which wasn't working either.
Did anyone experience the same problems before? Did I do something wrong or is there a workaround for this?
Second question: What is the exact reason why a export and import is necessary? Or is it only necessary if the database is already corrupt? Is there a way to check that?
Thanks alot!
Sten

The entry was not imported most likely because it's parent isn't in the database yet. Are entries above this in another backend ? If so try importing that backend first. Also, that dn is so long, that it exhausted the buffer which is used to write messages in the access log. This is why, there's nothing after "which".
What is the exact reason why a export and import is necessary? Or is it only necessary if
the database is already corrupt? Is there a way to check that?The database corruption could be silent. So a binary backup/restore when going from 6.2 to 6.3 is not recommended and the LDIF route must be used.

  • Replication problem with iPlanet directory server 5.1 SP2 HF1

    If I make a apply a change to either of consumer servers for an entry that belongs to the large database, that change does get applied to the consumer targated but it can not refer the change to teh master. Neither the master, nor the other consumers get updated consequently. I did not have this problem with directory server 5.1 SP1. I only see this problem after I apply directory server 5.1 SP2 HF1.
    From the error log file, I see the following message:
    NSMMReplicationPlugin - repl_set_mtn_referrals: could not set referrals for replica

    I have a suggestion - try another means for administering your directory - use the console only for maintenance and tuning purposes. There are several products out there that are much better for day to day operations ...
    Otherwise - I think with 5.1 the view is based on the rdn of the entries - and I am not sure it is customizable. Additionally I know 5.2 solved your second issue - maybe the latest SP of 5.1 has solved it as well - though I don't really know ...

  • Changing IP Address and ports in Directory Server 5.1 SP 4 and 5.2 SP4

    Thanks in Advance.

    1) I don't know what you've typed in when installing... but I've never seen that message. Are you using any language specific characters ?
    Do you get the error after this screen ?
    <b>
    The suffix is the root of your directory tree. You may have more than
    one suffix.
    Suffix [dc=sun,dc=com]:
    </b>
    If yes, then this means that the value you typed in is not a valid DN... and you must enter a valid one.
    2)The Directory Server is installed under /usr/iplanet but the database is under /var/iplanet/ds5 and configuration is under /etc/iplanet/ds5 ...
    You can use symbolic links if you want to move things around.
    3) You mean you downloaded the tar.gx file of iDS 5.1 and install it on Solaris 9... No problem, I do this every day. As long as you have right to create directories and files, you should be able to install as anyone. If not, you should install as root and then let the server run as a special user.
    4) Solaris 9 comes with iDS5.1 packages already installed. But the server is not configured at all.
    Running directoryserver setup allows you to configure it and create the database, accounts...
    Running directoryserver uninstall remove the instance of the installed database... It doesn't remove the packages. You can start again a setup...
    By the way, I think that iDS 5.1 on Solaris 9 comes with the full documentation... May be you should start by reading it.

    Ludovic.

    I had already followed the instructions in the doc from the link you gave me and it still doesn't work. It would be nice to know how to do it, but now that I know how to install the Messaging Server 5.2 directly into the Directory Server 5.2 it isn't so important.

  • Upgrading  iplanet 4.1 directory server to 5.0

    Dear all
    Problem goes like this:
    We have netscape messaging server 4.1 ,directory server 4.1 running on NT box
    we want to upgrade our mail server to 5.1 and directory server to 5.0 .
    how can i get a pack of mail server 5.1 with directory server 5.0.
    we are thinking to shift the system to Solaris also.
    i tried first loading directory server 5.1 on solaris and then loading messaging server on the same system but using the existing directory server option . then migrating the users from old directory server to 5.1 .
    when we are loading the 5.1 on solaris it's straight forward and it's getting loaded but when installing messaging server on the same system we got a problem saying that serious problem occured while installing admin server ....
    and coming out.

    Hi Phil,
    To ensure its not permissions I'd grant the EUL Owner
    the "Select Any Table" database priv and then try
    again.
    If it still fails I would then perform a database
    trace of the session to get more details.
    Finally, if that fails I would create a new 3.1 EUL
    and export/import all of your business areas into
    that EUL and perform the upgrade to 4.
    Thanks,
    JeffHi Jeff,
    I'll try your suggestions.
    I also did a Business Area refresh which fixed a few definitions that no longer existed but when I ran the upgrade again I got the same error.
    Thanks.
    Phil.

    Please stop
    The migration guide has step by step instructions, including command line examples, are you using that as your reference?
    Your upgrade should be to (at a minimum) DSEE 6.3.1.1.1. Upgrading to 6.0 is upgrading to a release level that has no patches or fixes to the product. There are significant fixes to the migration command line tools. There is a good chance you will run into issues.
    You should install and review migration to ODSEE 11.1.1.7.0 (which would effectively be the 7.2 release of the DS).
    There is a specific guide for migration and upgrade, which includes migration from DS 5.2 to 11.x
    The full documentation collection for 11.1.1.7.0 is here

  • Issue w/ Case Differences Using the IBM Directory Server MA

    We have the following issue using the IBM Directory Server MA using FIM 2010 R2 (Version 4.1.3479.0).
    We provision a new object, e.g., uid=jdoe,ou=users,o=contoso, into an instance of IBM Directory Server
    The object is created in IBM Directory Server as uid=jdoe,ou=users,o=contoso
    A Full Import on the IBM Directory Server MA runs and confirms the export
    Subsequent imports, sync, and exports run successfully
    <Time passes>
    A Full Import on the IBM Directory Server MA runs, and this object shows up as a staging-error (uid=jdoe,ou=Users,o=contoso)
    Subsequent imports and syncs report errors on this object (staging-error)
    Note that we do not manipulate the anchor (DN) of this object once it is created in IBM Directory Server. Other attributes are synchronized, but the object is never renamed/moved. This case change does not happen with all of the objects brought
    in during the Full Import, but the number of instances do increase periodically. At this point, it does look like the import is changing from a lowercase "u" to an uppercase "U" but not vice versa.
    I found a related
    TechNet article containing the following remark:
    "IBM Directory Server does not guarantee that the case of a DN component will match in all instances. On a synchronization or import from IBM Directory Server, this can manifest itself as an unexpected update. For example, if you create
    O=TEST, and then create the user cn=MikeDan,O=TEST, this might be imported from IBM Directory Server as
    cn=MikeDan,O=test. Because of the case difference, FIM treats this as an update on subsequent full imports."
    Unfortunately, the article does not propose a resolution.
    Has anyone encountered this issue? More importantly has anyone resolved this or found an acceptable workaround?
    Note that deleting the connector space is not an acceptable workaround. :)

    I remember experiencing this issue when we were on 5.0, and I believe it persists through 5.1 as well.
    There is a comment in the 5.2 release notes that something similar was fixed:
    Changing case sensitive attribute values failed in MMR. (4624693)
    If I had to take a wild guess, I would say that the server does some internal checking to see if the value has changed, possibly based on the attribute syntax, to avoid replicating "changes" that really don't change anything except case. I doubt that all your custom attributes are case-sensitive, though. Enabling replication probably "turns on" this behavior, which doesn't go away even if replication is disabled.
    In any case, you're probably out of luck unless/until you upgrade to 5.2.

  • Re: (forte-users) Unstable server ENV after upgrade to Forte30M2.

    I see/suggest a few things:
    1) In your #1, you mention ".... development and test environments which use the
    same Forte 3M installs through links ...". This concerns me. On our UNIX box
    each environment has it's own directory containing it's own install. If your
    environments are some how sharing a node manager, log directory or processes (to
    name a few things) that is a recipe for disaster. They may be competing for
    resources and usually the first one started will win.
    2) I haven't done a lot with compatibility levels, but if an application built
    in dev is to run in test it may be important that node managers and services
    (autocompile, codegen etc.) be at the same level (????).
    3) Check the definition files, to make sure the two environments operate
    independently. If they are both trying to write to the same log file the one
    started up first will work while the second will not as the file will be "busy".
    4) We usually use rpcreate (newer version) to create brand new repositories.
    Than we export/import the source code that we need. Also it is important to
    force compile ALL plans in a workspace at least once after doing the import.
    This will ensure that all of the code is "speaking the same language". The other
    compile, only compiles those pieces of code that changed from the last compile.
    Hope this helps.

    Subject: (forte-users) Unstable server ENV after upgrade to Forte 30M2.
    We are running Forte 3M2 clients and server in our test environment with
    clients on NT and server on Solaris 2.6. Eversince the upgrade from 3L to 3M
    we have been having an unstable environment that does not remain alive for >
    10 mins. These are the details of the Forte installs and server setups :
    1. The server hosts the development and test environments which use the same
    Forte 3M installs through links (same ftcmd, ftexec, nodemgr, etc.). The
    environments are at compatibility levels 0 and 1 respectively.
    2. The two environments have the same definition files (defining the ENV
    variables), though seperate copies and the two environments are hosted on
    different ports on the same server.
    3. While building the new 3M environmnets in DEV and TST, we exported the
    old 3L repositories and imported them into the new 3M repositories and
    deployed the applications.
    While the DEV environment is stable the TST environment is not. This has
    been observed while moving plans between the environments (export and
    import) using fscript commands, deploying the apps after the move using
    fscript, and testing the apps. Sometimes it has come down right after a
    startup. There is no programatic reference to the environment agent in the
    code. So, a programatic shutdown is ruled out.
    Does anybody have a clue or a similar experience ?
    Thanks.

    We found a solution to our issue.Their desktops were in a lockdown environment and the essbase.id file located in the windows directory was locked as well. This file is responsible for assigning ports etc and it couldn't be updated for the 6.5.4p2 upgrade. Once the file was deleted and the user reconnected to Essbase, the essbase.id was reset and they could connect.

  • Use of configuration directory server

    Maybe this is a dumb question but since I dont know the answer:
    Does one need to buy a production license of the Directory Server to use as a configuration directory server?
    I will have six web servers in my production environment. But only one or two admin user accounts for secure access.
    Thank,
    -amit

    Both 2005Q1 and 2005Q4 are considered 6.2. I would
    use 2005Q4. Actually, I DID use 2005Q4.
    Why use bits that are already superceeded? Is it the
    cost of 4 CD's?So, can this happen in two separate stages?:
    1. First upgrade all directory servers to 5.2p4 and migrate the current messaging server 5.2 configuration.
    2. At a later date, once directory services have been upgraded and are stable, the upgrade of the messaging server can be done.
    Thanks

    Hi Henry,
    Even we can’t see /OWA virtual directory in IIS manager, still doesn’t mean it not exists. The IIS configuration files are located in ApplicationHost.config. This file is located in %windir%\system32\inetsrv\config.
    Found the below entry even with no owa vdir in IIS manager, remove the entries below and try upgrade again. (Note: Before you modify ApplicationHost.config, please take a backup first.)
    <application path="/owa" applicationPool="MSExchangeOWAAppPool">
    <virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\owa" />
    </application>
    If the issue still occurs, please do not hesitate to post back.
    Best regards,
    Eric

  • Migrating Netscape Directory Server 4.1 to a new server

    Hi,
    In the current production environment, we are using Netscape Directory Server 4.1 as the authentication with Siebel CRM system. The server hardware is old and there is a need to refresh the server. As Netscape Directory Server is the only supported/ certified LDAP with embedded functionalities in Siebel Financial Services 6.0.2.300, we are planning to upgrade only the server hardware and migrate all the user information from old server and the new one, with Netscape Directory Server 4.1 remained.
    I have studied the Netscape Directory Server 4.1 Deployment Guide and gone through the migration procedures, looks like the procedures are only applicable for migrating Netscape Directory Server to a newer version. There are no specific procedures mentioned for migrating Netscape Directory Server to the new server hardware with the same directory server version.
    I am seeking for detailed procedures of migrating Netscape Directory Server 4.1 to a new server hardware with the same directory server. Anyone has done this migration before? I thank you in advance for your valuable feedback.
    Sincerely,
    Julie

    Luckily, I have the technical documentation in hand, which contains all the configuration of the current server. So I need to use "db2ldif" to export the data. I am currently testing on the migration by following these steps:
    1. Install the new server.
    2. Stop the Netscape Directory Server and Netscape Administration Server services in old server.
    3. Copy the slapd-<server_name> folder from old server to a temp location of new server.
    4. Take the old server offline.
    5. Configure new server to have the exact configuration as the old server.
    6. Backup the existing slapd-<server_name> folder in new server, copy the slapd-<server_name> folder from the temp location to C:\Netscape\Server4 directory of new server.
    7. Start the Netscape Directory Server and Netscape Administration Server services in new server.
    Will try out your suggested method. Thank you so much for your feedback.
    Regards,
    Julie
