Hi

I have recently upgraded to NW6 and started using console1

When I first ran it all the snapins seemed to work ok (no objects with questionmarks in the tree) It does not matter if I run console1 from the workstation or the server now I get objects with ?s According to the help menu option all the snapins are in place but the problems persists.

I also find it takes an inordinate amount of time to load (so now does NWadmin)

I have upgraded to the latest version of the client 4.9

thoughts please

 
Hi,

Which objects show up as question marks? Most likely the problem is not with ConsoleOne but rather with DS. You want to look at the health of DS through DSRepair. Do the same objects show up with question marks in NWAdmin? How many servers/replicas in the tree?

>>Which objects show up as question marks?
most objects not associated with users or groups!

>>You want to look at the health of DS through DSRepair.
The DS seems ok Time synch is also ok

>>Do the same objects show up with question marks in NWAdmin? yes

>>How many servers/replicas in the tree?
30+ servers and alas all too many replicas (I inherited this network after the system was disaggregrated from a much larger(and older) system)
 
Hi,

My guess is that not all your replicas have the same data. Try running ConsoleOne/Nwadmin from a different server and see if you get the same results. You stated that all was well for a while....it's seems a long shot that snapins for both ConsoleOne and NWadmin stop working suddenly.

Take a look at TID 10067667, the part that they talk about the inconsistancies.

The only thing I did which was different was to upgrade to the latest client, I will try regressing to the previous client and see if the objects come back!

 
if you run startx from the server and open console1
do you get any question marks

if so waht?
