Options on Servers Known to This Database<br />
The following repair options are available for servers:<br />
• Repair All Network Address<br />
novdocx (ENU) 01 February 2006<br />
Checks the network address for every server in the local <strong>eDirectory</strong> database. This option<br />
searches the SLP directory agent, depending on the transport protocol available, for each<br />
server’s name. Each address is then compared to the Server object’s network address property<br />
and the address record of each replica property of every partition Tree object. If the addresses<br />
are different, they are updated to be the same.<br />
• Repair Selected Server’s Network Address<br />
Checks the network address for a specific server in the local <strong>eDirectory</strong> database files. This<br />
option searches the SLP directory agent, depending on the transport protocols currently bound<br />
for the server’s name.<br />
• View Entire Server’s Name<br />
Displays the complete name of the server when the width of the server name is too great to<br />
view from within the server's table. This option is the same as the -P option. For more<br />
information, see “-P” on page 63.<br />
Examples<br />
To perform an unattended repair and log events in the /root/ndsrepair.log file, or to append events to<br />
the log file if it already exists, enter the following command:<br />
ndsrepair -U -A no -F /root/ndsrepair.log<br />
To display a list of all global schema operations along with the advanced options, enter the following<br />
command:<br />
ndsrepair -S -Ad<br />
To repair the local database by forcing a database lock, enter the following command:<br />
ndsrepair -R -l yes<br />
NOTE: The input for the ndsrepair command can be redirected from an option file. The option file<br />
is a text file that can contain replica and partition operation-related options and suboptions that do<br />
not require authentication to the server. Each option or suboption is separated by a new line. Make<br />
sure that the contents of the file are in the proper sequence. If the contents are not in the proper<br />
sequence, the results will be unpredictable.<br />
11.5.2 <strong>Troubleshooting</strong> ndsrepair<br />

your machine.<br />
