iPlanet Directory Server 5.1 on TruCluster

Hello Tru64 Managers:

We are having a problem running iPlanet Directory
Server 5.1 Service Pack 1 on TruCluster 5.1b.

We are running the iPlanet Directory Server as a
Cluster Service using the CAA, so incase of a failure,
CAA could start the iPlanet Directory Server on the
surviving node.

The problem is that sometimes the iPlanet Directory
Server database gets corrupted and during startup
gives the following messages:
===================================
[21/Feb/2005:12:24:15 +0800] - iPlanet-Directory/5.1

[21/Feb/2005:12:58:09 +0800] - WARNING: ldbm instance

=====================================

We know that now HP has stopped supporting the iPlanet
Directory Server anymore for Tru64. But we are using
some of the iPlanet specific libraries in our code. We
are stuck with iPlanet until our code is changed.

Please let me know if you have any ideas about why we
could be getting this problem.

Thanks in advance.

Praveen
