Novell Edirectory 8.8 - Novell BUSINESS CONTINUITY CLUSTERING 1.1 SP2 - ADMINISTRATION Administration Manual

BCC 1.1 SP2 for NetWare also supports a business continuity cluster with clusters in two eDirectory
trees. See Appendix B, "Implementing a Multiple-Tree BCC," on page 127
Peer Cluster Credentials
To add or change peer cluster credentials, you must access iManager on a server that is in the same
eDirectory tree as the cluster where you are adding or changing peer credentials.

4.1.5 Novell eDirectory 8.8

Novell eDirectory 8.8 is supported with Business Continuity Clustering 1.1 Support Pack 1. See the
eDirectory 8.8 documentation (http://www.novell.com/documentation/edir88/index.html)
information.
Rights Need for Installing BCC
The first time that you install the Business Continuity Clustering engine software in an eDirectory
tree, the eDirectory schema is automatically extended with BCC objects.
IMPORTANT: The user who installs BCC must have the eDirectory credentials necessary to
extend the schema.
If the eDirectory administrator username or password contains special characters (such as $, #, and
so on), make sure to escape each special character by preceding it with a backslash (\) when you
enter credentials.
Rights Needed for Individual Cluster Management
The BCC Administrator user is not automatically assigned the rights necessary to manage all aspects
of each peer cluster. When managing individual clusters, you must log in as the Cluster
Administrator user. You can manually assign the Cluster Administrator rights to the BCC
Administrator user for each of the peer clusters if you want the BCC Administrator user to have all
rights.
Rights Needed for BCC Management
Before you install BCC, create the BCC Administrator user and group identities in eDirectory to use
when you manage the BCC. For information, see
User," on page
Rights Needed for Identity Manager
The node where Identity Manager is installed must have an eDirectory full replica with at least read/
write access to all eDirectory objects that will be synchronized between clusters. You can also have
the eDirectory master running on the node instead of the replica.
The replica does not need to contain all eDirectory objects in the tree. The eDirectory full replica
must have at least read/write access to the following containers in order for the cluster resource
synchronization and user object synchronization to work properly:
The Identity Manager driver set container.
The container where the Cluster object resides.
