13.2 System Might Hang on Terminating the IP Address Change Step when Performing the Transfer ID Scenario

Description: Failure of the script to change the IP address or terminating the IP Change step manually might cause the system to hang. You must restart the target server and replace the service-specific configuration file with the backup file for the service.

Action: To restore the original IP address of the target server, replace the <service>.conf configuration file with the <service>.orig backup file for the service.

For example, if eDirectory authentication fails on completion of the IP Change step, use the following command:

cp /opt/novell/eDirectory/conf/nds.orig /opt/novell/eDirectory/conf/nds.conf

where nds.orig is the backup service file on the target server and nds.conf is the configuration file created during execution of the IP Change step.
