Option Alternate Options Description
on the machine.
--file=name -f name This sets the path and name
of the .inf file provided with
the migration script. The only
parameter is the
General.ConfigDirectoryAdminPwd
parameter, which is the
configuration directory
administrator's password. Any
other configuration setting is
ignored by the migration
script.
--cross -c or -x This parameter is used when
the Directory Server is being
migrated from one machine to
another with a different
architecture. For
cross-platform migrations,
only certain data are
migrated. This migration
action takes database
information exported to LDIF
and imports into the new 8.0
databases. Changelog
information is not migrated. If
a supplier or hub is migrated,
then all its replicas must be
reinitialized.
--debug -d[dddd] This parameter turns on
debugging information. For
the -d flag, increasing the
number of d's increases the
debug level.
--logfile name -l
This parameter specifies a log
file to which to write the
output. If this is not set, then
the migration information is
written to a temporary file,
named
/tmp/migrateXXXXX.log.
To disable logging, set
/dev/null as the logfile.
