12.3 Using SSH

You can migrate the services (Step 1 to Step 5) using either the Migration GUI or using CLI. From Step 6, you must proceed only with CLI because after IP change you cannot SSH to the target server.

To perform Transfer ID by using the SSH console, perform the following steps:

  1. Connect to target server using SSH.

  2. On the command prompt enter, miggui to launch the application.

  3. Authenticate both source and target servers.

  4. Select the migration type as Transfer ID.

    You can either migrate all the services to an OES server, then transfer the NetWare or OES server’s identity, or only transfer NetWare or OES server’s identity to an OES server.

  5. Save the project and close the Migration Tool GUI.

  6. Run the scripts mentioned in Step 1 (eDirectory Precheck) to Step 5 (DIB Restore) provided in the Section 11.0, Using Migration Commands for Transfer ID.

  7. On the SSH terminal console, run the script mentioned in Step 6 (IP Change) provided in the Section 11.0, Using Migration Commands for Transfer ID.

    After running these scripts the remote machine hangs.

  8. Reconnect to the target server with the new IP address provided in Step 7.

  9. On the SSH terminal console, run the scripts mentioned in Step 7 (Host Name change) to Step 8 (Reinitialize Server) provided in the Section 11.0, Using Migration Commands for Transfer ID.

  10. To complete Transfer ID, run the scripts mentioned in Step 9 (Repair) to Step 10 (Restart Server).
