dsapp.sh is designed to be a server-side tool aimed to help customers and support engineers troubleshoot and solve common support issues for the Novell DataSync product according to KCS standards. Many of the features found in dsapp automate the processes defined in Technical Information Documents (TIDs). The purpose of this tool is to make these procedures simpler.

Logs

  • Configure all logs to default or diagnostic/debug
  • Log capture (see test item's flow through DataSync connectors)
  • Remove log archives to free up space (TID 7010533)

Register & Update

Database

Certificates

User Authentication Issues

  • Finds authentication issues for specific user, suggests steps to resolve (TID 7012048)
  • Monitor User Sync State
  • Remove user references (TID 7008852)
  • Remove user (also removes db references)
  • Re-initialize all users

We believe this can be an extremely helpful tool when working to troubleshoot and resolve problems with the DataSync application. There are more features we wish to include, but believe this is a great start.

It was contributed by a community member and is published "as is." It seems to have worked for at least one person, and might work for you. But please be sure to test, test, test before you do anything drastic with it.
