Environment
Novell iPrint for Linux
Situation
When attempting to run iPrint migration (miggui), the tool reports that the Driver Store is not active. The /var/opt/novell/migration/<projectName>/log/iprint.log shows the following error:
Failed to obtain a NetIQ eDirectory Server connection to <IP Address> or NetIQ eDirectory Server is not running.
Failed to obtain a NetIQ eDirectory Server connection to <IP Address> or NetIQ eDirectory Server is not running.
Resolution
Run this command on source server:
Syntax:
ncpcon bind --ncpservername=<anyname> --ipaddress=<IP of Source Cluster Volume>
Example:
ncpcon bind --ncpservername=iprinttest --ipaddress=172.52.38.12
Syntax:
ncpcon bind --ncpservername=<anyname> --ipaddress=<IP of Source Cluster Volume>
Example:
ncpcon bind --ncpservername=iprinttest --ipaddress=172.52.38.12
Cause
miggui runs an ndsstat command against the IP address of the POSIX cluster resource. The ndsstat command will fail because POSIX cluster resources do not listen on the ncp port of 524 by default. The suggested resolution causes the POSIX cluster resource to listen on port 524.
