12.1 <strong>Novell</strong> Import Convert Export Utility<br />
If an LDAP server is refreshed or unloaded, while a <strong>Novell</strong> Import Conversion Export operation is<br />
running, the LBURP operation is timed out message is displayed on the <strong>Novell</strong> Import<br />
Conversion Export screen. The server recovers later, when the LBURP operation times out.<br />
12.2 ndsmerge Utility<br />
The PKI servers are not active after a merge operation. They must be restarted using the npki -l<br />
command.<br />
Merge operations might not be successful on different versions of the product. If your server is<br />
running an older version of NDS or <strong>eDirectory</strong>, update to the latest version of <strong>eDirectory</strong>, then<br />
continue the merge operations.<br />
The merging of two trees will not succeed if containers with similar names subordinate to a tree are<br />
present in both the source and target trees. Rename one of the containers, then continue with the<br />
merge operation.<br />
During the graft operation, error message -611 Illegal Containment might appear. Modify<br />
the schema by running ndsrepair(1). Then run ndsrepair -S and select Optional Schema<br />
Enhancements.<br />
12.3 ndstrace Utility<br />
When you turn on the ndstrace(1) screen, an error message might display indicating that a primary<br />
object is invalid for the reference link. You can ignore this message if <strong>eDirectory</strong> is functioning<br />
correctly.<br />
12.4 ndsbackup Utility<br />
While backing up <strong>eDirectory</strong>, NDS Error: Connect to NDS server failed might<br />
display. This might be caused by <strong>eDirectory</strong> listening on a port other than the default port 524. At<br />
the command line, enter the port number that <strong>eDirectory</strong> was configured on. For example, if<br />
