Situation
If the original user source connection is down, for any reason, a second connection cannot be added. For example, if two LDAP servers exist, LDAP1 and LDAP2, and LDAP 1 is offline for maintenance, LDAP2 cannot be added as a new connection in ZENworks Configuration Center.
Resolution
This is working as designed, as it is expected that the new connection would be added before the first server is taken offline. Bring the first server back online in order to add this second connection. If the first server is permanently offline, contact Novell Support for further help and reference this document.
Additional Information
The following error may be seen in the zcc.log:
