5.3 Tips for Successful Consolidations
• When you run the Server Consolidation Utility, you must be logged in to the network as a user
with Supervisor rights to the source and destination servers. If you are not logged in when you
start the utility, you can log in as you select the source and destination trees.
• For better performance, Novell recommends that the source servers, destination servers, and
client workstation all be located on a common LAN segment.
• For Windows NT server consolidations, you should use the fastest workstation available to run
the Server Consolidation Utility. If possible, assign the workstation a static IP address. Turn off
screen savers and power management to avoid interruptions during the consolidation.
• When using the Server Consolidation Utility to copy data from a compressed volume to an
uncompressed volume, ensure the destination server has enough space left in the volume to
accommodate the uncompressed data.
Decompression requires some disk space to decompress the file on the source and copy it.
Having a small amount of space left on the source system might result in a server abend or
unwanted behavior in the file system.
