Resolution

- 604 indicates problem with Identity Manager Schema, either schema is broken or not extended properly. Reinstall Identity Manager Schema files using "idm-install-schema" to resolve the issue. If the schema is not extended, Identity Manager cannot function.
 
Run the /opt/novell/eDirectory/idm-install-schema program to extend the schema.
