-617 FFFFFD97 DATABASE FORMAT

Source

eDirectory™

Explanation

The record structure of the eDirectory database does not match the structure expected by the version of eDirectory (ds.nlm) being used. Therefore, the local database cannot be used.

The record structure of the eDirectory database is checked when loading eDirectory (ds.nlm) and during any attempts to abort an eDirectory activity.

Possible Cause

The local database is damaged.

Action

Run DSREPAIR once. If this error persists after running DSREPAIR the first time, contact a Novell* support provider.

Warning:

If DSREPAIR is run a second time, the original.OLD database files will be overwritten and it might not be possible to restore the former Directory Information Base (DIB).

Note:

The dsrepair.nlm requires a valid record structure. Resolving record structure problems requires the assistance of Novell technical services.
