Environment
- NetIQ eDirectory
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 (SLES 12)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL 7)
- systemd
Situation
System V commands rcndsd and /etc/init.d/ndsd are not supported on systemd therefore it is not possible to pass any of the following startup parameters to ndsd
- -ndb
- -rdb
- -igrfl
Resolution
Create/edit the file env_custom (in the /etc/opt/novell/eDirectory/conf directory by default) and add the appropriate line:
- NDSD_DONT_OPEN_AGENT=Y
- RESTRICTED_MODE=Y
- NDSD_IGNORE_RFL=Y
Then restart eDirectory
ndsmanage stopallndsmanage startall
Remember to edit/remove env_custom after ndsd has restarted
Cause
systemd systems do not use System V start/stop scripts.
