14.6 On Failure of Migration and Restoring eDirectory to the Source Server, LDAP Does Not Bind

To bind LDAP you must modify the values of the LDAP configuration version of the LDAP server and LDAP group objects of the source server:

If the LDAP server displays a message, “Config version 10 is greater than 8 in attribute” or any such similar message, you must change the Version attribute value of the LDAP group and server objects of the source server to 8. You can change the attribute values using iManager. Perform the following steps:

  1. Access iManager, then log in to the eDirectory tree where the source server you want to manage resides.

  2. In Roles and Tasks, select Directory Administration > Modify Object.

  3. Browse and select the LDAP server object of the source server, then click OK.

  4. In General > Other tab, in Valued Attributes column, select ldapConfigVersion and click Edit.

  5. Change the LDAP Configuration Version value as defined in the error, then click OK.

    For example, if the LDAP server displays a message, “Config version 10 is greater that 8 in attribute” or any such similar message, you must change the LDAP Configuration Version attribute value of the LDAP server to 8.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Repeat Step 2 to Step 6 for LDAP group objects of the source server.

  8. Restart LDAP module on the source server:

    On NetWare:

    unload nldap.nlm

    load nldap.nlm

    On OES

    nldap -u

    nldap -l

On performing the preceding steps the server returns to the status before it is removed from the eDirectory tree.
