11.1.2 Performing a Local Database Repair
Use this repair operation to resolve inconsistencies in the local database so that it can be opened and
accessed by eDirectory.
A local database repair can be performed on a temporary set of files if you specifically request it.
Otherwise, the repair operation will take place on the live database.
Performing the repair operation on a temporary set of database files requires closing the database
during this part of the operation. If you choose to work on a temporary set of files, you will be
prompted to commit the repair modifications before they are made permanent. Otherwise, changes
take place immediately.
Following a repair operation, you can view a log of the repair operations to determine if further
operations are required to complete the repair. For more information, see
Section 11.2, “Viewing
and Configuring the Repair Log File,” on page 268 .

Check Volume Objects
And Trustees (NetWare
Only) No Ensures that each volume on the NetWare server is associated
with a Volume object in eDirectory. If not, it searches the
context that the server resides in to see whether a Volume
object exists. If no Volume object exists, one is created.
After validating the volume information, a list of trustee IDs is
validated. Each object in eDirectory has a unique trustee ID.
This ID is used to grant rights to other objects, including
NetWare volumes, in the eDirectory tree. This task ensures
that each trustee ID in the volume list is a valid eDirectory
object. If not, the trustee ID is removed from the volume list.
