| Never Restore a Replica |
|
| Although you can back up an Open Directory replica, there is no real need to do so. In fact, restoring a replica can be dangerous, because it puts an outdated copy of the account information on the network. Because a replica is a copy of the master, the master effectively backs up the replica. If a replica develops a problem, you can just change its role to standalone server. Then you can set up that server as though it were a brand-new server, with a new host name, and set it up as a replica of the same master as before.
