Chapter 4, Migrating and Upgrading 73
Migrating from Enterprise Server 3.6
Migrating Netshare
If you had Netshare turned on in Enterprise Server 3.6, you migrate the
configuration files automatically as part of the migration process.
To successfully migrate Netshare directories and environment, on the Migration
Parameters page you must choose to use your old document root. Otherwise
your Netshare data is not carried forward.
Migrating Search Collections
You need to choose which search collections, if any, you want to migrate. The
Migration Parameters page has checkboxes for you to select the collections you
want to migrate. If you don’t migrate a collection when you migrate the server,
you cannot go back and migrate it in the future.
If you choose to use your old document root, the search collections you
migrated work automatically. If you choose to use a new document root
instead of your old one, you may need to recreate some of your collections
before they will work.
Note that multiformat collections are not supported in iPlanet Web Server 4.1.
Migrating Search Pattern Files
You have the option of migrating the search pattern files. You should only do
this if you have customized the default pattern files. In addition, if you want to
migrate the old pattern files to the new server and you are using the advanced
search applet, you need to change your migrated pattern files so that they call
the search applet properly.
In Netscape Enterprise Server 3.6, the applet files were called applet.zip
and searchapplet.zip. In iPlanet Web Server 4.1, the applet files are called
SearchApplet.jar and SearchAppletIE.jar. Change references to the
old applet files to the new applet files.
Migrating Applications
After migrating your server settings and data, you may also need to make
changes to your applications so that they run on iPlanet Web Server 4.1.
