The eDirectory Management Toolbox

The Novell® eDirectoryTM Management Toolbox (eMBox) lets you access all of the eDirectory backend utilities remotely as well as on the server.

eMBox works with Novell iManager to provide Web-based access to eDirectory utilities such as DSRepair, DSMerge, Backup and Restore, and Service Manager functionalities.

All functions are accessible, either on the local server or remotely, through a command line client. You can perform tasks for multiple servers from one server or workstation using the eMBox Client.

For all eDirectory Management Tools (eMTools)---such as Backup, DSRepair, DSMerge, Schema Operations, and eDirectory Service Manager---to run, eMBox must be loaded and running on the eDirectory server.
