You can continue to use the existing server configuration for the new version.

You should proceed as follows:

ÊStop Advanced Server for UNIX

ÊCheck the databases. This will save time during the upgrade installation if the databases are corrupt.

Call /var/opt/lanman/bin/acladm -C -y and /var/opt/lanman/bin/samcheck -r to check and repair the acl database and the account databases.

ÊRemove Advanced Server for UNIX V3.5 as described in the manual for the respective version.

ÊDeinstall the optional packages including optional Service Packs, the server software, and NetBIOS. When you are deinstalling you will be offered the option of saving the lanman.ini file, the user account etc. and using them for the new version. For further information on deinstalling Advanced Server for UNIX please refer to the “Overview and Installation” manual for the respective version to be deinstalled.

ÊIf you want to install the new version after NetBIOS has been deinstalled, you do not need to restart the system.

Special features of NetBIOS configuration:

The following applies only if you had previously installed a NetBIOS Version 3.5A.

The NetBIOS Version 3.5A /var/opt/nbrfc/nbrfc.cfg configuration file is copied to /tmp when the nbrfc package is deleted, and can then be saved. The reinstallation of NetBIOS Version 3.5B and later is based on a new configuration file structure. It is not possible to automati- cally retain the old interface configuration, but you can convert old NetBIOS name mappings into the new configuration file structure.

The following options are available:

To ignore old name mappings:

ÊInstall the nbrfc package without regard for the old nbrfc.cfg file. You will then find a new configuration with the configuration files under /var/opt/nbrfc/conf. All network interfaces found are configured automatically in the interfaces.cfg file.
