Sun Microsystems 8190994 Server User Manual


 
The old instance has been stopped correctly.
A disorderly shutdown of the old instance will cause problems during migration. Even if the
old and new instances are on dierent machines, the old instance must be stopped before
migration is started.
Migrating the Schema Manually
Directory Server 5 schema les are located in serverRoot/slapd-serverID/config/schema.
Directory Server 6.0 schema les are located in instance-path/config/schema.
Directory Server 6.0 provides a new schema le, 00ds6pwp.ldif, that contains new password
policy attributes. In addition, certain conguration attributes have been added to 00core.ldif .
Apart from these les, the standard schema les provided with Directory Server 6.0 are identical
to those provided in version 5.
To migrate the schema, perform the following steps:
1. Copy the 99user.ldif le from the existing instance to the new instance. If you have
already added custom schema to the new instance, you will need to choose which version of
the custom schema to keep.
2. If you have dened custom schema in any other les, copy these les to the new instance.
3. Any fractional replication information must be redened in the new instance.
Migrating Conguration Data Manually
Directory Server 5 conguration is specied in the le
serverRoot/slapd-serverID/config/dse.ldif. Directory Server 6.0 conguration is specied
in the le instance-path/config/dse.ldif.
If you are migrating from 5.1, you must migrate the conguration les manually. The easiest
way to do this is to run the migrateInstance5 migration script to produce a 5.2 conguration,
and then to migrate the 5.2 conguration using dsmig. For information on using
migrateInstance5, see the Directory Server 5.2 2005Q1 Installation and Migration Guide.For
information on using dsmig to migrate the conguration, see
“Using dsmig to Migrate
Conguration Data” on page 31
.
The following section describes the specic conguration attributes that must be migrated from
the old instance to the new instance.
Migration of Specic Conguration Attributes
The values of the following attribute types must be migrated.
