16.13 Updating eDirectory Pool Objects

On the Pools page, the Update eDirectory option adds or updates the Novell eDirectory pool object at the same context level as the server. NSS searches for the object. If the pool object exists, NSS prompts you with two options: Delete and replace the existing object, or Retain the existing object. If the pool object does not exist, NSS adds the object to the context level.

Use this option to update eDirectory after you have modified a pool’s parameters or renamed it.
