Creating and Managing Directory Services Partitions
4 Choose “Abort Partition Operation.”
A list of the replicas of the selected partition appears. Each replica’s type and
state are also displayed.
As long as at least one of the replicas has not yet finished the operation you
began, you can abort the operation. If the state of the replica is “On,” all
operations are complete and cannot be aborted.
5 To abort the partition operation, press <F10> and choose “Yes.”
The partition operation is aborted, and any replicas that began to be merged or
created (depending on the operation you had begun) are returned to their
previous state.
Additional Information
Creating a Replica
When you create a partition, a master replica is created automatically and
stored on the server where the parent partition’s master replica resides. You
can create additional replicas of the partition, within these guidelines:
• You can have only one master replica. Additional replicas must be read/write or
read-only. For a description of replica types, see “Planning and Creating
Partitions and Replicas” in this chapter.
• You can store only one replica of a partition on a server.
Replicas can be created using NetWare Administrator or PARTMGR. Both
procedures are described in this section.
