If you do not have all the backup files and roll-forward logs necessary to make the restore complete
so that verification will be successful, you must follow the instructions in this section to recover the
server. Here is an outline of what you can recover if verification fails:
• You can still recover the server's identity and file system rights.
• You cannot recover any replicas on this server from backup, but the server can still be used for
the replicas it contained after you follow the recovery procedure in this section. You must
remove the server from the replica ring and use advanced Restore options and the DSRepair
Tool to bring the server to a state where it can be put back in the replica ring. Then you can re-
add the desired replicas to it.
• Unfortunately, if this server had the sole copy of any partition of the database (there were no
other replicas of the partition), the partition cannot be recovered.
Use the instructions in this section after verification fails to recover the server's identity and file
system rights, and to remove and re-add it to the replica ring. When you have followed these steps
and the replication process is complete, the server should function as it did before the failure (with
the exception of any partitions that were not replicated and, therefore, can't be recovered).
First, complete
“Cleaning Up the Replica Ring” on page 426
. Then continue with
“Repair the Failed
Server and Readd Replicas to the Server” on page 427
.
14.9.1 Cleaning Up the Replica Ring
This procedure explains how to
• Reassign master replicas.
If the failed server holds a master replica of any partition, you must
use DSRepair to designate a new master replica on a different server in the replica list.
• Remove replica list references to the failed server.
Each server participating in replica rings
that included the failed server must be told that the failed server is no longer available.
Prerequisites
eDirectory is installed on the machine where you are trying to restore the failed server.
A restore was attempted, and the restore verification failed.
The NDS database is open and running, and the database named RST is still on the machine
(left there by the restore process).
You know which replicated partitions were stored on the failed server. The replicas this server
held are listed in the header of the backup file.
Procedure
To clean up the replica ring:
1
At the console of one of the servers that shared a replica with the failed server, load DSRepair
with the switch that lets you access the advanced options.
• NetWare and Windows: Use the -a switch.
• UNIX: Use the -Ad switch.
For more information on how to run DSRepair with advanced options using the -a or -Ad
switches, see
Section 10.9, “Advanced DSRepair Options,” on page 269
