Restore NDS to the Source Server

By removing NDS from the source server, you removed the server from any
replica rings that held a partition of the source server. Now you must complete
the following procedure to restore NDS to the source server.
1
Enter one of the following at the server console:
If your source server was running NetWare 4, enter LOAD
INSTALL.
If your source server was running NetWare 5 or later, enter LOAD
NWCONFIG.
2
Select Directory Services > Install Directory Services onto This Server.
3
Select the NDS tree where the source server existed prior to migration.
4
Select a time zone and time configuration parameters.
Ignore any warnings or errors that appear during the restoration of NDS,
but make a note of the errors before pressing ESC.
5
Enter the Admin name and password.
6
Enter the context where the source server existed prior to migration and
press F10.
7
Save the NDS (Directory) information.

Options > Select Directory Back Up and Restore > Restore Local DS
Information after Hardware Upgrade > Restore Reference from another
Object to This Server.
