Installation guide

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Solaris machines, the migrate-ds-admin tool
is in the /usr/sbin/ directory. On HP-UX machines, the migrate-ds-admin is
in the /opt/dirsrv/sbin/ directory.
Option Alternate Options Description
General.ConfigDirectoryAdminPwd=password Required. This is the
password for the
configuration directory
administrator of the old
Directory Server (the default
username is admin).
--oldsroot -o Required. This is the path to
the server root directory in the
old 6.x or 7.x Directory Server
installation. The default path
in 6.x and 7.x servers is
/opt/redhat-ds/.
--actualsroot -a This is used for migrating
between two machines to
specify the real path to the
current server root directory in
the old 6.x or 7.x Directory
Server installation if that
directory is mounted on a
networked drive or tarballed
and moved to a relative
directory. In that case, the
oldsroot parameter sets the
directory from which the
migration is run (such as
machine_new:/migrate/opt/redhat-ds/),
while the actualsroot
parameter sets the server
root, (/opt/redhat-ds/).
--instance -i This parameter specifies a
specific instance to migrate.
This parameter can be used
multiple time to migrate
several instances
simultaneously. By default,
the migration script migrates
all Directory Server instances
