Explanation

An Object Move operation is still in progress.

Possible Cause

Before an object can be moved again or before a partition operation can be initiated on the partition that encompasses the moved object's destination location, all Object Move operations must be complete.

The length of time to complete all the updates will vary depending on the size of the replica, the number of replicas, and the condition of the communication links between all the servers holding the replicas.

This error can also be caused by a moved object that lost the original object (the primary obituary), a broken partition, or an attempt to move a parent container to one of it's own descendents.

Action

Try one or more of the following actions:

- Leave the object in its current context until it can be moved again. This might require that the object be left in its new context for several minutes or hours.
- Check for obituaries that are not progressing. View the iMonitor obituary report, which will display objects that have moved obituaries.

Or, display a detailed list of all obituaries by clicking the Check External References option from the Advanced Options menu.

If you suspect that the obituaries are not progressing, contact a Novell® support provider.

- Verify that the purger ran successfully. To do this, use SET DSTRACE=+J and SET DSTRACE=*F commands.
- Resolve any errors received by the Janitor background process on the server that holds the master replica of the partition that encompasses the object's original location (while processing that partition).
