Meeting System and Software Requirements

The Server Consolidation Utility runs on a Windows* workstation and lets you copy files to different servers and reassign printer agents to different locations in the same eDirectory^TM tree.

Workstation Requirements

• Windows NT* (4.0 or later), Windows 2000, or Windows XP Professional Edition workstation with 50 MB of available disk space.

  The Server Consolidation Utility does not work with Windows XP Home Edition or Windows 98.

• Novell Client^TM software installed and connected to the network.

  Windows NT/2000/XP workstations must be running Novell Client for Windows NT/2000/XP version 4.83 or later.

  To check the Novell Client version, right-click the N icon on the workstation toolbar and then click Novell Client Properties > Client. To download the latest client, see the Novell Software Downloads site.

• The Supervisor right on the source server and the destination server.
• If you are copying data from NetWare 4, configure the IPX^TM protocol to run on the Novell Client workstation.
• For best performance, the source server, destination server, and client workstation should be running on the same LAN segment.

Server Requirements

• Destination server and source server are in the same tree.
• Destination server is running NetWare 5.1, or 6.
• Source server is running NetWare 4.2, 5, 5.1, or 6.

  NOTE:  To copy data from NT Servers or NetWare 3 servers, use the NetWare Migration Wizard, which is available for free at the Novell Software Downloads site.

• Supervisor right to both the source server and the destination server.

  Use ConsoleOne^® to verify that you have the Supervisor right to both servers.

• The latest NetWare Support Packs on both the source and destination servers.

  Updates are available for specific NetWare versions at the Consolidated Support Pack home page.

• (Conditional) If you are copying data from NetWare 4.2, each volume to be copied must be running long name space support.

  To add long name space support to a NetWare 4.2 volume, enter the following at the server console: LOAD LONG and then enter ADD NAME SPACE LONG TO volumename. Replace volumename with the name of the NetWare 4.2 volume.

• A current backup of eDirectory before moving any printers.

After meeting the system and software requirements, you can install the software and run the program.
