After the upgrade to eDirectory 8.8, the default location of the configuration files, data files, and log
files are changed to
/etc/opt/novell/eDirectory/conf
,
/var/opt/novell/
eDirectory/data
, and
/var/opt/novell/eDirectory/log
respectively.
The new directory
/var/opt/novell/eDirectory/data
uses a symbolic link to the
/
var/nds
directory.
The old configuration file
/etc/nds.conf
is migrated to
/etc/opt/novell/
eDirectory/conf
directory. The old configuration file
/etc/nds.conf
is renamed to
/
etc/nds.conf_pre88
and the old log files under
/var/nds
are retained for reference.
NOTE: “ndsconfig upgrade” has to be run after nds-install, if upgrade of the DIB fails and nds-
install asks to do so.
