Hi Kannan,

For 1.:

This symbol means "MDM repository is invalid" (see page 74 of the Console Reference Guide).

Suggested solution is to unmount and then remount the repository...

Kind regards,

Hi dennis,

If the server was locked, then what is the way to unlock it?

Thanks,

Hi Kamalakannan,

The repository status icon (shown at left) displays a gray lock to indicate that a connection to repository has not yet been established.

To unlock:

To connect to a disconnected MDM Repository (gray lock): In the Console Hierarchy tree, right-click on the MDM repository to which you want to connect and choose Connect to Repository from the context menu, or select the tree node and choose Repositories > Connect to Repository from the main menu.

MDM opens the Repository Login dialog,enter your user name and password for the selected repository and click OK. BY this way you can unlock locked repository.

(Console Ref guide, Page No 78)

Hope these comments solve your problem.

Hi,

1. If you are using <b>SAP MDM SP05 </b>the connection to MDM Server takes place automatically when you Mount the Server.

Then to avoid the lock which you are getting just restart the MDM Server Service by going to <b>Control Panel> Administrative tools> Services </b>and then select The <b>MDM Server </b>Service and just <i>Restart</i> it.

Then try to mount the server it will work fine.

2. If you are using <b>MDM SP04 </b>then you have to give the Required password to Login to the Server.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Kamalakanna,

1. The icon shows that the ' MDM repository is invalid'. May be due to inconsistency. So it has been suggested to unmount and remount the MDM repository.

2. Try to ping MDM server IP address from your neighbour machine. If it pings then your neibhour machine should be able to mount the server in MDM console.

If it doesnot ping, then take the help of network engineer to open the ports to provide access to the neighbour machine.

Hope this information will solve your problem.
