Loading TSANDS automatically on OES 2 for Linux
The services for backing up eDirectory on OES is not turned on by default. The theory is that the TSANDS should only be loaded on the backup servers. To automatically load TSANDS for eDirectory backup, a line needs to be added to SMDRD.CONF.

Cloud Computing is No Threat to IT Jobs
There is a growing belief that cloud computing will lead to IT job losses, but there is no reason it has to. In fact, like many historical IT changes, it might require new skills, but not necessarily fewer bodies.

GroupWise Migration from NetWare to OES2 SP2 with Transfer ID
This is my migration guide for GroupWise 8.x (will work for GroupWise 7.0.3 as well). It covers migrating from GroupWise on NetWare with NSS volumes to OES2 SP1/SP2 using NSS volumes. In conjunction the migration is suited for a Transfer ID scenario and only covers the Domain/PO migrations. This is just one of many ways to migrate GroupWise from NetWare to OES2.

OES2 SP2 Migration Guide for Transfer ID Scenarios
This is my updated migration guide for OES2 SP2 and using the Transfer ID scenario to migrate from NetWare to OES2 SP2. It covers File System Consolidations, DHCP and iPrint Migrations, along with Transfer ID option. I have also included a brief mention for GroupWise as the GroupWise guide is separated, but can be used in conjunction with this. Includes some tips and gotchas to assist in a more smooth migration.

OES2 SP2 Installation Guide
This is my updated guide for OES2 SP2 that should get you up and running a basic OES2 SP2 system fairly quickly. I've updated some pre-reqs and caveats that should more clearly prevent issues with NSS/EVMS and other install gotchas that people have come across.

GroupWise Monitoring in OES2 Novell Clustering
An application like GroupWise might crash but the Linux server will stay up and the resource won't migrate since the resource volume and IP address are still up. The solution to this is the Monitoring function within Novell Clustering on Linux.

Authenticating to Applications that require Active Directory-Style Authentication with Novell Domain Services for Windows
In this case, the application is Citrix XenApp 6, formally known as Presentation Server. Follow me for layman's terms on getting it done. Remember, there are SEVERAL scenarios for utilizing DSfW, this is just one of many.

Low Cost NetWare Backup to Disk Using FreeNAS - Part II
In an article a few months ago I demonstrated how to use the built in RSYNC features of FreeNAS to provide a low cost backup to disk solution for NetWare. While investigating adding several features to the backup scripts and procedures in that article, I came across rdiff-backup and was intrigued by the possibilities of smaller "diff" type backups (specifically for my GroupWise server).
