12.2 Secondary Administration Console Installation Fails

Secondary Administration Console installation fails with a message “'Verifying time synchronization”. If you are installing secondary Administration Console, ensure that time is in sync with primary Administration Console prior to installation.

If the time is in sync and secondary Administration Console installation fails or takes a long time, see the eDirectory install logs under /tmp/novell_access_manager. The log file name will be similar to install_edir_xxxxxx. If at the end of the log, you see an entry “Verifying time synchronization” multiple times, repair the eDirectory by performing the following steps:

  1. Log into primary Administration Console and execute the ndsrepair -T command.

  2. Execute the ndsrepair -N command and select the server which has the problem.

  3. Log into secondary Administration Console and you can see that the installation has proceeded. You need not to re-run the installer.
