This section describes the procedure for migrating an HP DCE 1.3.1 or

1.4 client on HP-UX 10.01 to HP DCE 1.7 on HP-UX 11.0.

See Managing HP-UX Software with SD-UX and the swcopy (1M),

swinstall (1M), and swremove (1M) man pages for complete information

on all aspects of HP-UX installation.

For information about migrating from HP-UX 10.x to HP-UX 11.0, see

Installing HP-UX 11.0 and Updating HP-UX 10.x to 11.0 (B2355-90153).

Migration Procedure

HP highly recommends that you do a system backup before starting to do

an update.

To migrate an HP DCE 1.3.1 or 1.4 client-only system to HP DCE 1.7,

perform the following steps:

1. Stop DCE on the system using dce_conﬁg STOP; DFS will not run

on HP DCE 1.6 or 1.7; if DFS is running, ignore any warnings

concerning running processes.

2. Upgrade the system from HP-UX 10.01 to HP-UX 11.0.

3. Restart DCE; DCE client software is bundled with HP-UX 10.01 and

later releases.
