Hello
From installation guide:
To enable backup and restore of the NDS/eDirectory database, complete the following steps:
1. Define the user account to be used when performing backup and restore of NDS/eDirectory.
2. From the Novell NetWare console, load the HPLOGIN.NLM module:
LOAD HPLOGIN.NLM
3. Provide the following user information to the HPLOGIN.NLM file to enable successful login to
the NDS/eDirectory database:
• NDS/eDirectory Context:
The context describes the container where the user objects reside. The container name
must be a fully distinguished name syntax. For example:
OU=SDM.O=MYDOMAIN
• NDS/eDirectory Object Name:
This is the Common Name of the user object that will be used as a valid NDS/eDirectory
user for logging in to the NDS/eDirectory database when Data Protector Disk Agent
performs backup or restore of the NDS/eDirectory. The selected user must be located in
the previously applied context. For example:
CN=MarcJ
if the selected user’s fully distinguished name has .CN=MarcJ.OU=SDM.O=MYDOMAIN
syntax.
• NDS/eDirectory Object Password:
A valid user password that is used with the user name for logging in to the NDS/eDirectory
database when a backup or restore of the NDS/eDirectory database is started.
User information entered in the HPLOGIN module is encoded and stored to the
SYS:SYSTEM directory. It is also used in conjunction with Novell NetWare SMS modules
that must be loaded and functional.
NOTE: The user account selected in the HPLOGIN module must have permissions to perform
backup and restore of the NDS/eDirectory database.
If changes are made on the NDS/eDirectory used object (moved to another container, deleted,
renamed, changed password), the information encoded in the SYS:SYSTEM directory must
be updated in the HPLOGIN module.
4. To back up and restore NDS/eDirectory with Novell NetWare Storage Management
Services(SMS), the SMDR.NLM and TSANDS.NLM modules must be loaded on at least one
server in the NDS/eDirectory tree. You can download the latest versions of TSANDS.NLM
and SMDR.NLM from the Web at http://support.novell.com/filefinder/.
The installation automatically adds the LOAD TSANDS.NLM line to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file,
so the Novell NetWare server can immediately recognize TSANDS.NLM. The Novell NetWare
SMS module SMDR.NLM is loaded as soon as TSANDS.NLM is loaded.
NOTE: If the installation did not add console commands to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, you should
do it manually.
TIP: To minimize network traffic during the backup process, load the modules on the server
containing a replica of the largest NDS/eDirectory partition.
Now you have fulfilled the requirements for the backup and restore of NDS/eDirectory. For
instructions about additional configuration tasks, see the HP Data Protector Help index:
“configuring”.
