Designer does not move all the configurations to the next stage. Users are expected to manually perform a few tasks to ensure that the configurations work properly.
Security Equivalences and Exclude Admin Roles: Check whether all the drivers have appropriate Security Equivalences and Exclude Admin Roles objects as defined in the previous stage.
eDir2eDir Driver Certificates: If you have driver certificates created in the current stage, ensure that these certificates are created in the next stage.
In Designer, right-click the application, then click .
Click , select the required options, then click .
Right-click , then click .
Java Environment Parameters: The Java* environment parameters enable you to configure the Java Virtual Machine™ (JVM) on the Metadirectory server associated with the driver set. You might need to change the Java classpath options if the .jar files your Metadirectory server is looking for reside at a different place in the new stage. To change the location, go to and provide the correct classpaths. When you enter multiple class paths, separate them with a semi colon (;) for a Windows JVM and a colon (:) for a UNIX* or Linux* JVM. Deploy the driver set if you make any changes.
Indexes: Make sure that all the customized indexes from the previous stage have been copied to the new stage. eDirectory uses these indexes to significantly improve the query performance. Some indexes are shipped with eDirectory. These default indexes are for the following attributes:
CN
Aliased Object Name
dc
Obituary
Given Name
Member
Surname
Reference
uniqueID
Equivalent to Me
GUID
NLS: Common Certificate
cn_SS
Revision
uniqueID_SS
extensionInfo
ldapAttributeList
ldapClassList
You can visit each Identity Vault server and collect the customized index information by doing the following:
In Novell® iManager, click the tab.
Click .
Select a server from the list of available servers.
It lists all the active and offline indexes on the selected server.
Make a note of all the customized indexes.
Ensure that you add these indexes to the corresponding servers in the next stage. See Index Manager for more information on creating, adding, or deleting indexes.
Ensure that password policies assigned to the containers, users, groups in the previous stage are assigned again in the current stage.
Start the drivers after moving the driver configuration to the next stage. Right-click each driver, select , then select .
