That depends, let me explain:

TTS means "Transaction Tracking System". A mechanism that protects databases and files from corruption - you could see it that way. TTS caches the information which are not fully written to the DB and in case anything should disturb the successful finishing of the process it is able to restore the old status before the changing process started.

With NDPS you need TTS for the Broker´s and Manager´s DB (where the Broker´s DB is not REALLY one).

On a NetWare server the SYS: volume automatically should have TTS enabled, but only in case this is a TRADITIONAL volume. (which would be the case in NetWare 5.1 or 5.0 for example). On a NetWare 6 box. SYS can/will be an NSS volume. HERE you need to activate TTS manually via command switch when loading NSS.NLM. (which would be: NSS /TRANSACTION=<VOLUME_NAME> , you can also type it directly on the console)

BUT - caution ! On the same server you can only have TTS enabled either on traditional or NSS, but not on both, and NSS on NetWare 5(.1) is a different version and does NOT provide the ability to run TTS.

Hope that is of help.

I have done the NSS /transaction=sys
now the manager load with out the error
but why would I need to do this with a reinstall.

If I load a server out of the box I do not need to do this.

any help would be great.

wink
