2.6 Disk Space Check on Upgrading to
eDirectory SP3 or later
When eDirectory server is upgraded from previous versions to eDirectory 8.8 SP3 or later, the disk
space check for the DIB upgrade would be performed. The free disk space necessary in the file
system, where the DIB resides would be equal to that of the DIB size. The messages of the disk
space check would be updated in the ni.log and <Install Path>/novell/nds/
ndscheck.log.
NOTE: The disk space check is required only during the DIB upgrade process. For more
information, refer to Chapter 7, "Upgrade Requirements of eDirectory 8.8," on page

2.7.1 Installing or Updating Novell eDirectory 8.8 on Windows
2000 or Server 2003
You can install eDirectory 8.8 for Windows without the Novell Client. If you install eDirectory 8.8
on a machine already containing the Novell Client, eDirectory will use the existing Client, or update
it if it is not the latest version.
1 At the Windows server, log in as Administrator or as a user with administrative privileges.
2 To resolve tree names, make sure that SLP is correctly configured on your network and that
SLP DAs are stable.

3 If you have Autorun turned off, run setup.bat from the Novell eDirectory 8.8 SP3 CD or
from the downloaded file.
The installation program checks for the following components before it installs eDirectory. If a
component is missing or is an incorrect version, the installation program automatically
launches an installation for that component.
