Troubleshooting NDS migration

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 2 Nov 2005

Q:
I used the Migration Wizard v8.1 to migrate from NW5.1 SP8 to NW6.5 SP4a. The NDS migration failed after bringing the source server down. I have restored the destination server but have NDS errors on the source server. If I try to run a dsrepair repair local database, it fails saying the database is locked.

A:
In the appendix to the online docs for the migration wizard are the troubleshooting steps to follow when this happens.
