Resolution
The domain partition is in mixed case and not being returned. Using the grep -i switch resolves the issue.
This has been reported to Engineering.
The workaround: add grep -i to the following section in the /opt/novell/xad/share/dcinit/provisionTools.sh script.
OBJECT_SID=`/usr/bin/ldapsearch -h $IP_ADDRESS -D "$ADMIN_NAME" -w "$ADM
_PASSWD" -s base -b "$DOMAIN_PARTITION" -x -Z -LLL dn objectsid | sed ' /^ / {;
H; d; }; /^ /! {; x; s/\n //; }; ' | grep "dn: $DOMAIN_PARTITION" -A2 | grep obj
ectsid | awk -F "objectsid:: " '{print $2}'`
Search for OBJECT_SID in the provisionTools.sh script and change to the following:
OBJECT_SID=`/usr/bin/ldapsearch -h $IP_ADDRESS -D "$ADMIN_NAME" -w "$ADM
_PASSWD" -s base -b "$DOMAIN_PARTITION" -x -Z -LLL dn objectsid | sed ' /^ / {;
H; d; }; /^ /! {; x; s/\n //; }; ' | grep -i "dn: $DOMAIN_PARTITION" -A2 | grep -i obj
ectsid | awk -F "objectsid:: " '{print $2}'`
