16.8 Changes to Server-Specific Information
Backup (NetWare Only)
In many NetWare installations, administrators have been creating backups of server-specific
information. With the release of eDirectory 8.6, the structure of the eDirectory schema was changed.
Further changes were included with the release of eDirectory 8.7. However, server-specific
information backups created by filesystem TSA or third-party backup tools were not supported by
the changes. Instead, the database changes were supported in a new “hot backup” facility provided
by the Backup eMTool in Novell iManager or by the eMBox client. Support for backup of server-
specific information using filesystem TSA was not included at that time. In eDirectory 8.7.3, this is
now supported using the hot backup functionality. As in previous versions, filesystem TSA calls the
dsbacker.nlm to create the backup, but now dsbacker.nlm calls the backupcr.nlm, which creates a
backup using the Backup eMtool functionality.
Effective backups can be created and restored using the following recommendations for various
NetWare and eDirectory versions.
The main differences in server-specific information in NetWare 6.0 with eDirectory 8.7.1 are as
follows:
Bigger File Size:
The former method of SSI backup contained only a small portion of the
database. Now, because the backup file contains all the information about all directory objects
on the server, it is much bigger. It will be roughly the same size as the database.
