System Requirements



You can upgrade to eDirectory 8.8 on the following version of NetWare:



NetWare 6.5 with Support Pack 3 or later (http://support.novell.com/filefinder/18197/

index.html)



Administrative rights to the eDirectory tree so you can modify the schema.

For information on hardware requirements, see “Hardware Requirements” on page 8.

Prerequisites



If you are installing into an eDirectory tree that has NetWare and Windows servers, each

NetWare server must be running:



NetWare 5.1 with Support Pack 8 (http://support.novell.com/filefinder/9331/index.html)

or later



NetWare 6.0 with Support Pack 5 (http://support.novell.com/filefinder/13659/

index.html) or later



NetWare 6.5 with Support Pack 3 (http://support.novell.com/filefinder/18197/

index.html) or later

Each Windows server must be running eDirectory 8.7.3 or later.



(Conditional) NICI 2.7 and eDirectory 8.8 support key sizes up to 4096 bits. If you want to

use a 4 KB key size, every server must be upgraded to eDirectory 8.8. In addition, every

workstation using the management utilities, for example, iManager and ConsoleOne, must

have NICI 2.7 installed on it.

Novell eDirectory 8.8 Installation Guide

Novell Confidential

Manual (ENU) 21 December 2004

When you upgrade your Certificate Authority (CA) server to eDirectory 8.8, the key size will

not change; it will be 2 KB. The only way to create a 4 KB key size is recreate the CA on an

eDirectory 8.8 server. In addition, you would have to change the default from 2 KB to 4 KB

for the key size, during the CA creation.



(Conditional) (to verify) If you are upgrading a NetWare server as a nonadministrator user,

ensure that you have met the following prerequisites:



A NetWare server in the eDirectory 8.8 tree installed as the tree admin

Ensure that you have the following rights:



Supervisor rights to the container the server is being installed into.



All Attributes rights: read, compare, and write rights over the W0.KAP.Security object.



Entry rights: browse rights over Security container object.



All Attributes rights: read and compare rights over Security container object.

As a nonadministrator user, you can only upgrade a NetWare server.

Hardware Requirements

Hardware requirements depend on the specific implementation of eDirectory.

For example, a base installation of eDirectory with the standard schema requires about 74 MB of

disk space for every 50,000 users. However, if you add a new set of attributes or completely fill in

every existing attribute, the object size grows. These additions affect thedisk space, processor, and

memory needed.

Two factors increase performance: more cache memory and faster processors.

For best results, cache as much of the DIB Set as the hardware allows.

eDirectory scales well on a single processor. However, Novell eDirectory 8.7 took advantage of

multiple processors. Adding processors improves performance in some areas—for example,

logins and having multiple threads active on multiple processors. eDirectory itself isnot processor

intensive, but it is I/O intensive.

The following table illustrates typical system requirements for eDirectory for NetWare:

Requirements for processors might be greater than the table indicates, depending upon additional

services available on the computer as well as the number of authentications, reads, and writes that

the computer is handling. Processes such as encryption and indexing can be processor intensive.

Of course, faster processors improve performance. Additional memory also improves

performance because eDirectory can then cache more of the directory into memory.

Objects Processor Memory Hard Disk

100,000 Pentium* III 450-700 MHz (single) 384 MB 144 MB

1 million Pentium III 450-700 MHz (dual) 2 GB 1.5 GB

Novell Confidential

Manual (ENU) 21 December 2004

Forcing the Backlink Process to Run

Because the internal eDirectory identifiers change when upgrading to Novell eDirectory, the

backlink process must update backlinked objects for them to be consistent.

Backlinks keep track of external references to objects on other servers. For each external reference

on a server, the backlink process ensures that the real object exists in the correct location and

verifies all backlink attributes on the master of the replica. The backlink process occurs two hours

after the database is open and then every 780 minutes (13 hours). The interval is configurable from

2 minutes to 10,080 minutes (7 days).

After migrating to eDirectory, we recommend that you force the backlink to run by issuing the

following commands from the server console. Running the backlink process is especially

important on servers that do not contain a replica.

At the server console, enter set dstrace=on.

Enter set dstrace=+blink.

Enter set dstrace=*b.

When the process is complete, enter set dstrace=off.

Updating the eDirectory Schema for NetWare

When upgrading a NetWare server to eDirectory 8.8, you might need to update the eDirectory

schema by running DSRepair on the server that has the master replica of the root partition.

IMPORTANT:

If the master replica of the root partition resides on a Windows server, follow the instructionsin

“Updating the eDirectory Schema for Windows” on page 15.

To update the schema:

Copy the appropriate dsrepair.nlm file from the product CD (or downloaded and expanded

file) to the sys:\system directory of the server that contains the master replica of the Tree

partition.

At the server console of the master replica of the root partition, load dsrepair.nlm.

Select Advanced Options Menu > Global Schema Operations.

Enter the Administrator’s name (for example, Admin.VMP) and password.

NOTE:

In eDirectory 8.8 and later, you can have case sensitive passwords for all the utilities. Refer to

Novell eDirectory 8.8 What’s New Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/edir88/index.html) for

more information.

Select Post NetWare 5 Schema Update > Yes.

dsrepair.nlm updates the schema and posts the results to the dsrepair.log file.

Ignore errors associated with adding object classes. dsreapir.nlm is simply applying the Post

NetWare 5 Schema Update changes to each object.

Copy the appropriate patch version of dsrepair.nlm to each NetWare server in the eDirectory

tree.

Usethe table inStep 1 as a reference. Having a correct version on each server ensures that the

schema needed for eDirectory is properly maintained when dsrepair.nlm is run in the future.

Novell eDirectory 8.8 Installation Guide

Novell Confidential

Manual (ENU) 21 December 2004

If you use an earlier version of dsreapir.nlm and select Rebuild Operational Schema, schema

enhancements made by the Post NetWare 5 Schema Update will be lost. To resolve lost

schema enhancements, run dsrepair.nlm according to the following table.

This action resynchronizes the schema from the root of the tree.

Close dsrepair.nlm before installing eDirectory on the server.

If dsrepair.nlm is loaded, the server might not restart.
