I have one thing to say to you.... good luck!
We have had numerous problems restoring NDS and most of them boil down to
problems with the NetWare TSA modules. I would say upgrade to the latest TSM
client you can and test with that. Don't bother with the older ones. Were
currently having problems restoring NetWare 5.1 and TSM client 4.1.2.16 on a
4.1.2.0 TSM server.
If you want more details email me off-list.

Subject: Restore of Novell NDS
To all,
Has anyone ever restored the entire NDS tree in a Netware 4.11 environment
using
an old ADSM client (3.0......) and the server is running ADSM version
3.1.2.20?. I am testing NDS restores and,
1) I do not get trustee rights back on individual user restores. Only the
home
directory comes back but any rights to other network files or directories
seem
to fail.
2) If I delete a test Container with Leaf Objects in it, upon restore of the
container none of the leaf objects come back. I must manually then restore
each
leaf object. Is this how ADSM restores the NDS? My command to restore the
container is res dir:.o=faatc.ou=adsmback from here I then need to
restore
each user individually, is there a way to drill down farther with one
command
without restoring the entire NDS.
3) Also my nightly's of NDS are still not going off. We have about 10
Netware
servers I tweaked a few of the dsm.opt files but they all still failed. Do
they
all need to be identical? I keep getting Invalid Drive Specification 'NDS'.
In
one OPT file I had as my Domain statement
DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL DIR
and I still got an NDS error. The other OPT files have
DOMAIN APP: SYS: USER: NDS:
Unfortunatley need to test on our production LAN so I cant restore the
entire
NDS, I limited to only specific testing. If anyone can help I would greatly
appreciate it.
Thanks
