Tivoli Storage Manager for NetWare Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide

Server Centric IDs

Server centric ids are unique ids assigned to each server. You can back up server centric ids on a NetWare operating system as part of the server specific information resource using the Tivoli Storage Manager client. See Server Specific Information for more information about backup and restore processing for this resource.

If you do not have a backup of the server specific information, or do not have the ability to backup this information, please read the following information:

When servers are lost due to hard disk failures or disasters, Server objects must be manually deleted because NetWare currently requires that new Server objects be created during the installation process (see following recovery scenarios for examples). When the old Server object is deleted, any objects which have references to the Server object will lose their references. Therefore, objects that reference Server objects will have to be handled accordingly.

Currently, there are two object types in the base schema which have references to server objects:

If the Server object is lost, you can perform either of the following steps to recover these object types:

Because of the dependency on the server centric id, you cannot restore these objects types over existing objects.
