Migrating to NetWare 6 NSS Volumes

When migrating to NetWare 6 NSS volumes, trustee assignments might not be fully restored to User and Group objects the first time you run the Finish NDS Migration step. NSS volumes depend on the NDS® backlink process to create ID information on objects before trustees can be associated with those objects. Therefore, you must verify that the backlink process is complete before running the Finish NDS Migration step.

If you have already run the Finish NDS Migration step and are missing trustees, you can manually complete the backlink process and rerun the Finish NDS Migration step. Reboot the server after this step completes.

To manually run the backlink process, enter the following commands at the server console:

set dstrace=on

set dstrace=+blink

set dstrace=*b

If you switch to the Directory Services screen on the server, you can watch the objects as they are processed. The above commands must be repeated until no more User or Group objects appear in the backlinked list on the Directory Services screen.
