12.11.1 Restore Source Server to Its Original Configuration

If Begin NDS/eDir Migration (Step 3) failed and the destination server did not reboot and take on
the name and identity of the source server, you need only restore NDS/eDirectory to the source
server. When NDS/eDirectory has been restored, you have restored the source server to its original
configuration and you are ready to try the NDS/eDirectory migration again.
1 Enter one of the following at the server console of the source server:
• load install if the source server is running NetWare 4
• nwconfig if the source server is running NetWare 5 or later
2 Select Directory Options > Directory Backup and Restore > Restore Local DS Information
after Hardware Upgrade.
3 Press F3 and enter sys:system\nuw30\ndsbu when prompted for the location of the
backup files.
NDS/eDirectory has now been restored to the source server.
IMPORTANT: Do not reboot the destination server. Because the destination server did not
take over the identity of the source server, no other action is required prior to performing the
NDS/eDirectory migration again.
4 Perform the NDS/eDirectory migration again.
4a Launch Migration Wizard and open the project you were previously working on.
4b When the project opens and you see the Project Window, click Begin NDS/eDir
Migration.
4c Follow the instructions in
Migration," on page
