Hi Experts:
We are on the process to unarchive a repository, but we are getting this error when trying to logon to load it.
Repository connect failed
Error: The MDM repository is invalid
p.s. We are trying to copy our Production environment to our Test Environment.
Thanks,
Claudia Hardeman
Hi all,
I am working with Claudia and we are trying ur suggestion. However No success as of now.
Also, wanted to know that how we can repair a repository without actually logging on or without connecting to the repository?

Hi Claudia
Before archiving the repository we should always verify the repository. In the report generated see if any fatal errors are coming. If needed repair and compact the repository and then archive again.
You can use CLIX command for doing all these jobs without logging into MDM console and connecting to the repository.

We had a similar problem with the "invalid repostory" message. Check the logs. Somehow the database user password and the one stored in the mds.ini file was out of sync. We reset the repository user's password and then modified the mds.ini file to set the new password. You'll have to remove the "Password+" setting and add "Password" with the clear text password. After restarting MDM server it will encrypt the password. After that we were able to load the repository successfully.
Good luck,
John
Hi Claudia,
I have been across this scene many times the easiest and fastest way to get rid of this problem is -
1) Delete the repository from Database
Step 1 u2013 Connect to the Database using the Database Management tool
Step 2 u2013 Delete the databases - RepositoryName_z000 and RepositoryName_m000
Step 3 u2013 Delete repository specific entry from the table A2i_Catalogs in A2i_xCat_DBs database
2) Unarchive the repository from old archive
3) Load the repository
This will solve the issue.
Regards.
Hi Claudia,
Please let us know the symbol on the repository.
If the symbol is freezed without any color, the reason might be that the version in which the repository was archived & in the environment which you are trying to unarchive are different.
This problem will be slved if you update the repository.

Pramod

did the unarchive process go okay?
check the unarchive log if any.
try updating the repository. is ur test & production on same patch level or different? ideally it should not matter. But i guess an update repository action should fix any inconsistencies.

Hi Claudia,
Follow the below steps
1. Stop MDM Server
2. Restart Database server
3. Start MDM Server
Try the same for your Mount repository issue.

Hi Claudia,
Try restarting the database and MDM server. Also check whether the user (this is the Database user you give DBMS login and PWD) must be system user abd has rights to create database.
