Re: NSS on Linux, "Emulating", Netware, was - Re: FirstLinuxserver

NSS is currently lacking DFS on Linux and last I had researched, could only
be failed from NetWare to Linux, NetWare to NetWare, or Linux to Linux, not
Linux to NetWare.

The 'volumes' at the Linux level will simply be mount points inside the file
system.  'nix does not use 'volumes' or 'drives' but integrates the
additional disk devices and partitioned space into the master file system at
a point you pick.  By default NSS partitions on OES Linux will be mounted
under /media/nss/{volume name}.

What you present to the clients is another decision point.  Lets say you
create an nss partition at /media/nss/vol1 and create a volume structure
under there of /data/home and /data/shared.  Traditionally what the users
would see is a volume named vol1 with \data as a folder and \home & \shared
under that folder.  On OES Linux you can choose to not present the volume
vol1 and instead define a home and shared volume instead.  This would be
done by using NCPCON with the following structure:
ncpcon create volume home /media/nss/vol1/data/home  and
ncpcon create volume shared /media/nss/vol1/data/shared
A bit more interesting.  An alternative to DFS using local disk only would
be to mount multiple nss partitions and mount them under a common point that
is shared as a volume.  I've done this as follows:
Create partitions and mount as-
/media/nss/vol1 (can be NSS, resier, or EXT3.  I reccomend staying with NSS
so as to not confuse any file system features.
Under there create additional NSS partitions:
/media/nss/vol1/sales
/media/nss/vol1/engineering
/media/nss/vol1/finance
/media/nss/vol1/it

	Perhaps the original message above became lost in the backlog of

though I believe there is material of interest to a wide audience of Novell

IDM drivers stop working

Hi Folks,

I have a server (Dell PowerEdge 1850) which is running Netware 6.5 OES
Sp2, which is running the Vault end of two IDM v3.0 drivers. Every so
often (approximately 6 -10 days, I am not sure exactly), the IDM simply
stops working, although it appears started and with no errors. It will
stop but not restart.

If I try to start it, the error I get is *exactly* the same as described
in TID 3007829.

I tried the suggested resolution in that TID, of disabling
hyperthreading (I ignored the remaining bit about changing drivers), and
to my astonishment it started my driver.

However, in fact, the problem remains. What I have discovered is that to
start the driver I have to shutdown the server completely (a restart
definitely will not do, and a reset appears not to work either).
Sometimes even a shutdown will not appear to do it, and after 2 or 3
shutdowns and restarts I will go into the BIOS and change something
irrelevant, and that seems invariably to work (or maybe it is the
multiple shutdowns?).

I cannot see what the problems might be, or how to fix them:

1)	what is causing the server to make/allow the drivers to simply
stop working after a period?
2)	why will they not restart normally, or even after the server
reboots?
3)	why does the server need to be shut down and powered off (and
