Managing the NetWare Directory Services Tree
Removing NetWare Directory Services from a Server
Directory Services Install removes NDS and deletes the Server object and
Volume objects associated with it from the Directory database.
If a Directory link is down (such as another server containing objects from this
server), you must use Partition Manager to delete the Server and Volume objects
from the Directory database.
7 To exit Directory Services Install, return to the Directory Services Install main
menu and select Exit.
8 Reset your time servers.
Since you have removed NDS, you must update your time servers. See the next
section for more information.
Updating Your Time Servers
Now that directory services has been removed from your Single Reference
time server, if other servers exist in this Directory tree, you must select the
next Secondary time server that is polled to become the Single Reference
time server so that your time servers will be synchronized.
To do this, change the “Server Type” variable in SAM.
Re-installing NDS on a Server
This procedure re-installs NDS on a server. It does not preserve the trustee
assignments from the first time NDS was installed on the server; you must
make those assignments again.
Prerequisites
• Access to the server console. You must also be a superuser.
• The Supervisor object right to the container in which you want to install the
server
Procedure
1 Run the DS Install utility.
2 From the “Directory Services Install” menu, select “Install Directory Services
onto this Server” and press <Enter>.
3 Install NetWare Directory Services on the server.
To select a Directory tree and install NDS on the server, follow the instructions
in chapter 5 of the NetWare 4.1/9000 Installation and Administration Guide.
