Red Hat Directory Server B.08.00.02 for HP-UX Release Notes and Supplemental Instructions

IMPORTANT: The db_name portion of the LDIF file name must match the database
name, and this name is case sensitive. For example, the LDIF file name for the
NetscapeRoot database must be NetscapeRoot.ldif.
Be sure to specify the -r option. This option causes the migration tool to migrate replica
state information. If you do not specify the -r option, and you must re-initialize replicas
after the migration completes.
4. If you are using SSL to secure the Directory Server, you must temporarily disable SSL or
create a password file for the SSL private key token. For more information, see Section 6.5
(page 47).
5. Verify that the Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 schema does not conflict with your current
schema usage. Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 adds new schema elements, such as those used
for the new password policy features. This new schema might conflict with schema already
used in your current directories. See Appendix B (page 59) for a list of schema differences
between Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 and previous versions.
The scripts migrate existing schema elements from the current version to Red Hat Directory
Server 8.0 schema elements, so conflicts occur only with schema that was added in Red Hat
Directory Server 8.0. In some cases, migrating to Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 can expose
schema conflicts that already exist in the current directory.
6. On the HP 9000 system where your legacy Directory Server resides, create a tar file of your
existing server root installation directory.
Examples
The following commands create a tar file of the existing Netscape Directory Server 6.11 or
6.21 installation root directory files to the legacydir.tar file:
cd /var/opt/netscape/servers
tar -cvf legacydir.tar ./*
The following commands create a tar file of the existing Red Hat Directory Server 7.1
installation root directory files to the legacydir.tar file:
cd /var/opt/netscape/server7
tar -cvf legacydir.tar ./*
7. Use FTP to copy the tar file of the legacy Directory Server installation directory files from
your HP-UX 11i v1, 11i v2, or 11i v3 HP 9000 system to the temporary directory in the HP-UX
11i v2 or 11i v3 HP Integrity system.
For example, the following commands copy the tar file, legacydir.tar, on the source
system to the temporary directory on the HP-UX 11i v2 or v3 HP Integrity system:
cd /var/opt/netscape/servers
ftp hostA.example.hp.com
user root
root passwd
mkdir /tmp/oldserver
cd /tmp/oldserver
binary
put legacydir.tar
