beware, it seems update to OES2SP2 breaks mounting of boot partition.

I did:
- offline upgrade (DVD) from oes2sp1 to oes2sp2 x86_64
- I sadly did not notice that /dev/sda1 (boot) was not mounted
- kernel 2.6.16.60-0.57.1 update installed in a new /boot directory

I had to recover with rescue system, copy the kernel files from the new directory to /dev/sda1, edit the menu.list to boot this kernel.
/dev/sda1 is still not mounted.

When manually mount sda1 I get:
mount: /dev/sda1 already mounted or /boot busy

I am setting up a base SLES10 with XEN running on it. I then want to virtualize OES2 in XEN. My questions come regarding the partitioning and setting that up correctly for OES2. When building the base SLES10 do I have to do anything special in there? Also with the virtualized XEN what should I do for partitioning in there. Currently I have the servers set up like this:

Base SLES10
10g-ext3 = /
50g-ext3 = /var
50g-ext3= /opt
4g-swap= /swap

XEN OES2
2g-swap= /swap
10g-ext3= /
48g=free space for NSS volumes

This is not max space just building a test box.

We recently had a remote office moved back into our building and their file shares are running on a seperate OES1 server that is quite old and we are looking to decommision. We are preparing to build a new cluster using suse but it will not be done within the next couple of months.

Does anyone know of a way to migrate files and their permissions from an OES1 box back to a netware 6.5 cluster? Is this even possible? It appears that all of the novell migration tools allow migration to a newer version but is not set up to migrate files to an older version of netware.

We have actually 2 nodes in NCS with hardware 64 bits but SLES10sp1 (32bits)- OES2 (32bits) systems, edir 8.8 SP2 (32bits).
We want to upgrade these nodes to SLES10 SP3 64bits - OES2SP2 64 bits and edirectory 64bits.
The upgrade path will be :
Adding a new node with hard and system up to date (all 64bits SLES, OES edir )
Doing an Rolling cluster upgrade.
What are the risks ?
Temporary mixed environnement of edir 32 (8.8sp2) and 64 bit (8.8 sp5) ?
Temporary mixed environnement of OES 32 and 64 bits (maybe first upgrade to OESsp1 ? ) ? just concern about environnement not software enhancements or conflicts.
NCS documentation seems OK for an upgrade path of OES2 to OES2sp2 but with the same systems environnement so ?

i implement my first new OES2SP2 System.

First install from SLES10SP3 and OES2SP2 Addon (no Services) went fine.
System is registered in NCC, have Updatechannel subscribed and looks fine.

Now i would in a second Step install some OES2 Services like eDirectory/NCP Server/iManager.

But i got Problems when i start Yast->Open Enterprise Server ->OES: Installation und Konfiguration

1) Error Message (translate from German):
No Connect to Installsource
OES2-SP1-Updates

But i don't know why.
Looks like TID 5062640, but this is for OES2 SP1.

rug shows me every Update channels are subscripte

I can skip this Messages and go on.
Now i can select some OES2 Services like eDirectory/NCP Server/iManager, they where be installed and thats it.

No Konfiguration Screen ore such Things.
I restartet the Server and run Yast->Open Enterprise Server ->OES: Installation und Konfiguration a second Time.
But there are no Konfiguration Screen or Summary.

So whats going on?
Any Idea?
Should i configure OES2SP2 Services manually at console Level?

I'm about to install a new OES2SP2 server into an existing (OES1SP2) single server tree. I would like to know how I can prepare myself if a a disaster occur.

Can I simply shutdown nds and take a copy of the dib on my existing OES1SP2 server, then start nds and install the new OES2SP2 server into the tree and if something goes wrong then I could simply restore the dib and everything would be as it was before I installed the new server into the tree?
