What a problem, took me a couple of day’s to figure it out. And the problem is…….
Directory Space Restrictions!!!!!!! 😕
This isn’t a rare problem, i’t can be found on support.novell.com but not with this error. Thats why I post it here.
Apparently the directory has reached it quota. And during the migration you need more free space in the directory than there is left. So you get a error that there is no more free space.
Solution: Remove or expande the directory quota’s temporaly or use nss /noquotacheck in nnscon

I noticed with a tool called slpsnoop, that service advertise them self with a ip adress 127.0.0.1
When I look for example at /etc/slp.reg.d/ntp.reg I see the following registration:
service:ntp://$HOSTNAME:123,en,65535
When I do a echo $HOSTNAME I get the servername back. But when I ping the server name I ping 127.0.0.1. So I looked at the /etc/hosts file and there I see the following record:
127.0.0.1 localhost servername servername.dnsname.nl
192.168.0.1 servername servername.dnsname.nl
So the first record DNS finds is 127.0.0.1 and that is what get advertised. If you remove the part after localhost everything works fine!
Update 2008-09-03:
It seems that a customized template for Vmware ESX alters the /etc/hosts file for 172.0.0.1. So watch out!
