D Server Configuration Migration
There is a host of configuration migration utility available now. If you
want to convert 4.x named.boot files to 8.x named.conf files, there
is a perl script, named-bootconf.pl available on the system. This perl
script file reside in /BIND/PUB/bin directory.
Explanation of configuration migration utilities;
The named-bootconf.pl is a perl script. Perl is a scripting language
like a shell script, it requires to be run under a interpreter environment
on MPE. The interpreter is a shareware, we require the Perl version 5
as the interpreter. The binary file for Perl version 5 has to be
downloaded from http://jazz.external.hp.com.
“Perl” is packaged as a mover archive. This has to be installed on the
MPE machine. “Mover” is a archiving program which is available on
http://jazz.external.hp.com. “Mover” will unarchive the “perl”
package which is in mover formal and install at the correct place. One
has to log on as MANAGER.SYS to do this. The files are stored in
/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib/perl5 interpreter.
