Replace Downed Netware 6.5 Server

I have a Netware 6.5 server that has seen it's last day. I have a full backup copy of 2 volumes DATA and HOME. I have a brand new server I want to insert into it's place as Netware 6.5 SP8, same name, and IP address. I have not installed Netware on the new server as of yet.
What is the proper procedure for doing this?
I would appreciate assistance.
Thanks

Hi,
The problem is that there are a LOT of proceedures, repending on your setup.... There is a lot we need to know. Is this server hosting the master replicas of any of the eDir partitions in yout tree? Or acting as a time server for your eDirectory tree? If so, special measure must be taken to make eDirectory happy prior to doing anyting.
Is the server dead and completely non-revivable? Its a LOT easier to replace the server treating it as a migration, or using a hardware swap procedure in which place you can gracefully prepare for the hardware swap so that you don't disrupt the references to the server within your eDirectory tree.
If its the ONLY server in your eDirectiry tree, then you have lost eDirectory - and so may as well do a fresh install.
So before you attempt this, please share with us the details of your environment, how eDirectory is partitioned and replicated, etc... picking the wrong process can make a real mess.

Replacing a NW 6.5 server that is a SLP DA

Hi everyone, I will be replacing a Netware 6.5 server that is also one (of 2) of our SLP DAs. The new server will have the same name and I/P address. When I remove eDirectory from the current server (in preparation to install the replacement), I assume that the eDir DA object will be deleted. Once the new server is installed and running (again, same name and I/P), I plan to re-create the DA object and include it in the Scope object. As with the current server, the autoexec.ncf will load SLPDA.
Is that all there is, or should I be aware of anything else?
Thanks.

No, SLPDA configurations are pretty straight forward. If the edir object isn't automatically deleted, then just delete it manually (for this DA only, not the other slp objects). Should be pretty smooth sailing for you.

Firefox freezes if I try to initiate a remote console session with the Netware 6.5 server I am connected to. I can force quit, re-initiate Firefox, re-authenticate and I'm able to successfully start a remote console session and acquire the server console.

Lexmark Marknet unable to connect to Netware 5.1 server with IPX

Hi,
Im having some problems with Lexmark Marknet print servers. We are using
Netware 5.1 servers with ipx print queues. The print servers are MarkNet
X2000 series and MarkNet Pro3 Series from Lexmark. The print servers are
being serviced by a Netware 5.1 server. (server a) I use the MarkVision
Printer Utility to setup the printer server.
We are having a migration project from Windows NT workstations to Windows
XP workstations. We have made new print queues for the XP environment. We
also want to use an other server (server b) for servicing the print
servers. I have made al the new queues on the volume on the new server
(server b). When I use the markvision to add the new server (server b) to
the existing print server it doesnt connect. Could there be a problem in
de IPX environment ?

Any reason why you dont want to use NDPS with IP? Most print servers like
lexmark will work with IP/LPR printing all you need to do is find out
what the name is for the port. Some use raw others use printer etc..
The print queues can easily be attached to the ndps printers within the
NWADMIN (workstation client MUST have ndps installed prior to assigning
queue).

Em showing everything is down including the admin server eventhough they are up in Weblogic Admin Console

Hi there,
We are running with Oracle Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.3.0 on top of Oracle Weblogic 10.3.3.0 which is installed on Windows Server 2008 64 bit. We have configured two SOA domains under this middleware home.For example, we will consider the SOA domain name as SOA1 and SOA2. When we logon to SOA1 Em console, Everything is showing the exact status as like SOA1 admin console. Whereas SOA2 is not the same case. SOA2 EM console showing all in red down arrow including Admin server but SOA2 admin console says everything running fine.
We checked the Oracle Doc ID 1484381.1 for more troubleshooting, But they have provided the patch only the version from 11.1.1.5.0 or later. Also we could see below error in the emos.log

Please help us to make sync the SOA2 EM console with SOA2 Admin console.
Thanks
Lakshman,

Hi Lakshman,
what about about the WLS admin console? What is reported there for both
domains?
When starting the managed servers for SOA2 domain, have you provided
the URL of the Admin Server of SOA2 domain?

NetWare 6.5 Server Consolidation

Good morning,
My customer is attempting to perform a NetWare 6.5 server consolidation, in the end they are wanting to move data from the NetWare server and then decommission that server. They are trying to move the DATA volume to a Cluster Resource
The Source server itself had a number of issues, especially relating to certificates, and also some DNS records were not completed for the Target Resource. One set of errors came to light

Just providing an update to this issue. It was reported to me this morning that a restart was performed on both the Source NetWare server and the Target Location. Since that restart took place the MIGGUI process was started again, and this time it would appear that the first pass is progressing through. Will monitor the situation and report further status messages.

PPPoE on BM 3.8/Netware 6.5 server I'm lost!!!

We just picked a new ISP that offers fiber but uses PPPoE. I am using a
router that supports PPPoE, mtu modifications, etc. Have a static IP.
My server (thank goodness it is a new 'test server' I have set up with all
of the up to date patches, etc,) is running Netware 6.5 and BM 3.8. I
configured it has private 192.168.1.100 private board and a 64.x.x.x
public board, set up just like the existing server on TCP/IP broadband
connection but need to connect to the internet using PPPoE.
How do I modify the server/router settings for the server to use PPPoE.
I have NAT capabilities in the router as well as the server.
Floundering in the PPPoE/BM 3.8 fog
JohnB

Thanks!!! Getting clearer (I hope) but I still must be a potato head
I have the private and public cards on th BM server set up on 2 different
networks as you suggested and the router is accepting a PPPoE assigned
public IP address. ( I can tell this from connecting the router to
another non-server/non-lan connected computer I can hook up directly to
the router.
However, when I run the server through the router, in the NAT translation
table for the public card in the BM server, what is the IP for that public
card under the translation table. The NAT table asks for the 'private
address' and the 'public address. For the 'private address, do I just use
the IP address I assigned it on the 192.168.10.0 IP segment? And then,
what do I put for the 'public Address'. The help screen says usually the
static IP from the ISP, but that doesn't work and it seems like I should
be pointing it to the router. Also, do I need to change the 'next hop'
setting in the LAN Static Routing Table?
Thanks always.

Pre-Populating Text fields from a Data drop down list using SQL Server

I'm currently trying to update some of our internal forms which are word based or a basic PDF form you fill in by yourself.
I'm connecting to our SQL server as there are databases stored there for an internal bit of software that hold information
I can use to fill in parts the form.
I have a data drop down list that is dynamically linked to the SQL databass and allows you to select a Project Number from that database, what
I want to do after this is selected is to automatically populate some text fields with the Project name, Account handler and other fields held in the
database.
I've had a look online to see if there is a solution but haven't really found anythig that is similar (although I am new to LC so may have seen it
and not realised) and my Java is non existant.
Has anyone tried this and able to point me in the right directions?
I'm using LiveCycle ES2 version 9.0.0.2 from Creative Suit 5.5 on Windows 7

Hi,
Actually this error does not cause any harm except a presentation inconvenience. In my multi-select prompt I am using variable expression with dynamic repository variable. Dashboard results are correct. Just variable's value does not appear on page (error Error Codes: G689FFB3:SDKE4UTF
Expression: @{biServer.variables['CUR_CAL_PER_MONTH_NAME']}). Pushing "GO" button on the prompt fixing the error but it's actually second execution of the dashboard.
Any ideas ??

Oracle 8.0.3 in a Netware 5.0 Server!

We have a netware 5.0 with 30 licenses.
We have Oracle 8.0.3 that it cames with novell server.
First of all where can i see information about oracle to netware servers?
We are trying to develop a program in VB 6 (is ready) that it comunicates with oracle server trought odbc connection.
We have the next problems:
- The oracle database have 5 user licenses, with 3 users working, there are no problems, but when the 4º user login into the oracle database (load the program in vb6 and begin work on it), all the users begin to receive the ask to login into database oracle (user/password/feiras.world). If in this situation 1 of 4 user goes out of the aplicattion all is fine!
- If we have a 5 user prodution oracle database, why can we only work with 3 licenses?
- The second problem is the program doing some search in database takes netware server almost to 100% of Utilization, and we wait a lot by the information, is this normal?
- The third situation, is that, the program works very slowly at getting data from da oracle database. Is this because we use VB6 and ODBC? Are some away of we improve performance?
Urgent
Obrigado,
Paulo J. Sousa

bad news ...
oracle 8.0.3 went out of support in march , 1999.
so no patches or downloads will normally be available after this

On Windows NT platforms, you will need to upgrade to :

Regards.Yes I'm sure, and this is a windows problem, OS locks files loaded into the memory.
This message clearly sates that the file you are trying to overwrite has a user mapped section. the session that is using the fmx should disconnect so you can overwrite the fmx.
I've read there's a workaround on this, but I can't remember it right now. Try searching the forum about it.

HELP!!! Problem with FMS on port 80 is shutting down Apache on my server!

Hello all,
I own FMIS 3.5. I had it installed on a VPS earlier this year and it worked fine. I later uninstalled it and moved to a NEW VPS with the same hosting comoany (Lunar Pages). Again, it worked fine.
NOW...
They are telling me that because FMIS is listening on port 80 (when I installed FMIS, I left the port settings as recommended, 1935,80 and 1111 for the admin) that it is shutting down Apache. For what it's worth, I did not install Apache when I installed FMIs on my NEW VPS because I figured I didn't need it as I was installing to a server.
The conflicting application is fmsedge which is running on port 80. Can ANYONE recommend an alternate port for fmsedge?
I am completely at a standstill with this, all my sites are down. The host tells me that Apache needs to run on port 80.
I am developing several websites that will use FMIS for RTMP streaming.
The worst part is that this worked before and suddenly is causing a problem
PLEASE help if you can. I am stuck.
Thank you in advance for your help!!!
Sincerely,
wordman

Graeme,
Thank you as usual!
FMS is set up on 1935 and 80, but I do have a second IP and will try that approach.
Will let you know how it goes!
Thank you!!!

wordman

IMQ Broker Not Shutting Down on Win 2000 Server Re-boot

I am using a Windows 2000 Server and have found that during a re-boot the Broker Service (3.5 SP1) is not shutting down completely. The following lines are missing from the log entry created when restarting the server: -
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1093]: Shutdown requested by broker administrator
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1047]: Shutting down broker...
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1077]: Broadcast good-bye to all connections ...
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1078]: Flushing good-bye messages ...
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1063]: Done
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1048]: Shutdown of broker complete.
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:55 BST] [B1066]: Closing: [email protected]:1108->admin:1074. Count=0
[17/Aug/2004:12:55:58 BST].
If the Broker service is manually stopped through Services the entries are placed into the log file.
The problem being created is the broker lock file is not cleared when service is not shutdown completely and when the server is restarted the broker service is then unable to launch as it believes an instance of the service is already running. When the lock file is deleted the broker service can be started.
Has anyone experienced this problem before and found a solution?
If any further information is required in this log then please update with required details.
Many thanks in advance.
Dave.

Thanks Joe,
Please read to the end. Thanks to your suggestions I believe I have found the cause of the IMQ Broker problems I was experiencing.
As you suggested by adding the line: -
imq.hostname=257s-bs1a
to the end of the IMQ config.properties file this seems to have worked around the problem shutting down and restarting the IMQ Broker.
Following numerous server restarts the IMQ Broker Service had restarted with Windows successfully. However, I was unable to successfully access the Data Distribution Page.
Further investigation showed the server was using a leased IP address and not static.
I removed the 'imq.hostname' line added earlier and changed the server IP address to static. When the server was rebooted I found the IMQ Service had started successfully. On several successive re-boots the IMQ Broker service restarted with Windows correctly.
To check if this was related to having a dynamic IP address of the server was changed back to Dynamic. Following the first re-boot of the server IMQ had started successfully. On the second re-boot of the server with Dynamic IP the IMQ Broker service did not restart. Following additional re-boots with a dynamic IP address the IMQ Broker service did not restart.
With the IP address changed back to static the server was re-booted. Following the first re-boot the IMQ Broker service had not restarted. Following subsequent re-boots with a static IP address the IMQ Broker service did restart.
Thank you Joe for pointing me in the correct direction.
Regards,
Dave.
