Platform Differences / Migration Issues
The Health Monitoring Server, which was
included in OES 1, has been removed in
OES 2.
This is now available in various Novell
Remote Manager dialog boxes on both
platforms.
For more information, see
Monitoring Services" on page
IDM 3.6.1 is not available on NetWare.
See "Overview" in the OES 2 SP3: iPrint for
Linux Administration Guide, and "Overview"
in the NW 6.5 SP8: iPrint Administration
Guide.
Novell has no plans to port IPX to OES.
The iSCSI target for Linux does not support
eDirectory access controls like the NetWare
target does. Nor is the iSCSI initiator or
target in OES 2 integrated with NetWare
Remote Manager management. You use
YaST management tools instead.
On the other hand, the iSCSI
implementation for Linux is newer and
performs better.
See Linux-iSCSI Project on the Web (http://
linux-iscsi.sourceforge.net).
See "Overview" in the NW 6.5 SP8: iSCSI
1.1.3 Administration Guide.
No functional differences.
NetWare uses NSS multipath I/O. Linux
uses Device Mapper - Multipath that runs
underneath other device management
services.
