Optional Schema Enhancements<br />
Description<br />
Extends and modifies the schema for containment and<br />
other schema enhancements. This option requires this<br />
server to contain a replica of the Tree partition, and the<br />
replica state must be On. In addition, all NetWare 4<br />
servers in the tree must have the following versions of<br />
<strong>eDirectory</strong>:<br />
• NetWare 4.10 servers must have NDS 5.17 or later<br />
• NetWare 4.11/4.2 servers must have NDS 6.03 or<br />
later<br />

Import Remote Schema (Advanced Switch<br />
Option)<br />
Declare a New Epoch (Advanced Switch<br />
Option)<br />
Previous versions of NDS will not be able to synchronize<br />
these changes.<br />
Select an <strong>eDirectory</strong> tree that contains the schema you<br />
want to add to the schema of the current tree. After you<br />
select a tree, the server that holds the master replica of<br />
the Tree partition is contacted. The schema from that<br />
server will be used to extend the schema on the current<br />
tree.<br />
When you declare a new schema epoch, the master<br />
replica of the Tree partition is contacted and illegal time<br />
stamps are repaired on the schema declared on that<br />
server. All other servers receive a new copy of the<br />
schema including the repaired time stamps. If the<br />
receiving server contains a schema that was not in the<br />
new epoch, objects and attributes that use the old<br />
schema are changed to the Unknown object class or<br />
attribute.<br />
Replica and Partition Operations Option<br />
Enter the following command to display information about each replica stored on the server:<br />
ndsrepair -P<br />
Select the required replica. The following options are displayed:<br />
• Repair All Replicas<br />
Repairs all replicas displayed in the replica table.<br />
• Repair Selected Replica<br />
Repairs only the selected replica listed in the replica table.<br />
IMPORTANT: Repairing a replica consists of checking each object in the replica for<br />
consistency with the schema and data according to the syntax of the attribute. Other internal<br />
data structures associated with the replica are also checked. If you have not repaired the local<br />
<strong>eDirectory</strong> database in the last 30 minutes, you should do so before repairing any replicas.<br />
• Schedule Immediate Synchronization<br />
Schedules the immediate synchronization of all the replicas. This is useful if you are viewing<br />
the ndstrace screen and want to view <strong>eDirectory</strong> information for the synchronization process<br />
without having to wait for it to run as normally scheduled.<br />
