Situation

The data migration fails.
A connection denied error is seen in the debug.log file of the running migration project.

Resolution

Verify the result of the following two commands:

Open a Linux shell on the OES2 target server and run this command:
/opt/novell/sms/bin/nbackup -U <admin name> -R <enter IP of the source server> --list-tsa-version
Example:  /opt/novell/sms/bin/nbackup -U <.admin.novell> -R 192.168.1.5 --list-tsa-version

*** This command fails ***

Now enter this command:

/opt/novell/sms/bin/nbackup -U <admin name> -R <enter DNS name of the source server> --list-tsa-version

***  This command succeeds ***

If the first command fails and the second command succeeds, download and apply the TSA5UP24 patch on the source NetWare 6.5 server.
