Using dsmig to Migrate Configuration Data

Configuration Data For Suffixes With Multiple Backends

Configuration data for suffixes with multiple backends is not migrated. Ifdsmig detects that a suffix has more than one backend, it does not migrate any of the configuration entries that belong to that suffix. This includes configuration entries for the mapping tree, replicas, replication agreements, LDBM instances, indexes, and encrypted attributes. Instead, all of these entries are dumped in the filenew-instance-path/migration/old_distribution_conf.ldif. You can import the distribution configuration data from this file after migration, if required.

Replication Configuration Data

Configuration data for replication is not migrated by default. If you want this data to be migrated, select the -R option. By default, the data is dumped in the file new-instance-path/migration/old_replication_conf.ldif. You can import the replication configuration data from this file after migration, if required.

Configuration Data for o=netscapeRoot

Configuration data for the o=NetscapeRoot suffix is not migrated by default. If this information is required, use the -N to migrate the configuration data. If you do not use the -N option, the data is dumped in the filenew-instance-path/migration/old_netscape_conf.ldif. You can import the configuration data from this file after migration, if required.

Configuration Attributes Not Migrated by dsmig

The following common configuration attributes are not migrated automatically.

This is not an exhaustive list. You might have used additional configuration attributes that must be migrated manually.
