Only one file system can have an active TTS. Therefore, if your server is using
both the Novell Storage Service (NSS) file sytem and the Traditional File
System, note the following:
TTS might be enabled on both file systems but it will only be active for
one of them.
By default, the Traditional File System has TTS always enabled.
NSS determines if the Traditional File System has TTS enabled and if this
is the case, it automatically makes TTS inactive on the NSS file system.
Therefore, if any traditional volumes are on your server, TTS on the NSS
file system is automatically disabled or inactive.
If TTS is disabled on the Traditional File System by using the DISABLE
TTS console command, then TTS automatically becomes active on the
NSS file system if it is enabled.
Because the DISABLE TTS command is not persistent, the only way to
persistently allow TTS to be active when it is enabled on NSS volumes is
to put the DISABLE TTS console command in the AUTOEXEC.NCF
file.
By definition, if you have traditional and NSS volumes on the same
server, then it is impossible for TTS to be available on all volumes.
If you only have traditional volumes on your server, then TTS is available
on all volumes.
If you only have NSS volumes on your server, you can enable TTS on all
volumes, but it will not, by default, be enabled on all volumes. To do so
would result in a 4 MB tax on every volume.
You can enabled TTS manually for any volume by entering the following
command at the System Console prompt:
NSS /Transaction=VolName
The NetWare server automatically disables TTS if one of the following
happens:
Volume SYS: becomes full
Volume SYS: is the TTS backout volume.
The NetWare server has insufficient memory to operate TTS
