Environment
Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 SP1 (OES11SP1)
Domain Services for Windows
DSfW
Situation
Migration does not retain sysvol facls
Source server
OES11SP1 January 2013 Maintenance Patch
Targe server
OES11SP1 January 2013 Maintenance Patch
After migrating a DSfW server the /var/opt/novell/xad/sysvol and all
directories under will have the owner as root root instead of the default rights.
The staging directory was not migrated as well.
Resolution
Apply the September Maintenance Patch before migrating the server.
If the migration was done before the patch fix the sysvol by following TID 7009748
The September Maintenance Patch also includes a fix for NTP variable calculation during migration and populated value is written into the /etc/opt/novell/xad/xad.ini
Taken care of wbinfo -u Administrator issue where it was throwing error: "failed to call wbcGetpwnam: WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND Could not get info for user Administrator"With the recent changes, the issue with Administrator should not appear after migration is completed at the target server.
