Environment

iPrint Appliance 2.0

Situation

100,000+ plus users were imported from an Active Directory source to the iPrint Appliance.  As a result of those users importing to the iPrint Appliance, the eDirectory DIB on the Appliance should consume a few hundred MB, but instead consumes nearly 10GB and is growing. Disk space is becoming scarce.

Resolution

Run the following ndsrepair at a terminal session of the iPrint Appliance:
ndsrepair -R -v no -f yes -Ad av

Additional Information

The eDirectory DIB size can be determined by running the following string of commands:
cd /var/opt/novell/eDirectory/data/dib;du -h --max-depth=0
For 150,000 imported users, the DIB should be around .5 GB.
