Migrating Tivoli Directory
Server solutions from an earlier version to IBM Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.3
Migrating log management solution
To migrate log management solution configured on a Tivoli® Directory Server version
earlier than 6.3 to Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.3, do the following:
Take a backup of the solution.properties file located in the <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt for
your existing version of Tivoli Directory
Server.
Migrate the supported Tivoli Directory
Server instance to Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.3.
Delete all the files and subdirectories from the directory <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt for
the migrated instance.
Install IBM® Tivoli Directory Integrator version
7.1.
Logon to the system using the credentials of Tivoli Directory Server instance owner.
Copy the following:
Copy the contents from <TDI 7.1 install location>/etc to <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt
Copy the contents from <TDI 7.1 install location>/serverapi
to <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt
Copy <TDI 7.1 install location>/idisrv.sth to <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt
Copy <TDI 7.1 install location>/testserver.jks to <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt
Create a directory named "logs" in <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt.
Add the following entry at the end of the <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/logmgmt/solutions.properties
file:
systemqueue.on=false
If the install path of Tivoli Directory
Integrator is different from the default path, then set the environment
variable IDS_LDAP_TDI_HOME to point to Tivoli Directory Integrator install location.
Run the log management solution.
Migrating SNMP solution
To migrate SNMP solution configured on a Tivoli Directory Server version earlier than 6.3
to Tivoli Directory Server
version 6.3, do the following:
Take a backup of the snmp directory for your existing version
of Tivoli Directory Server,
for example Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.2.
Migrate the supported Tivoli Directory
Server instance to Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.3.
Replace the <TDS v6.3 install path>/idstools/snmp/idssnmp.conf
file by the <TDS v6.2 install path>/idstools/snmp/idssnmp.conf
file.
Replace the <TDS v6.3 install path>/idstools/snmp/idssnmp.properties
file by the <TDS v6.2 install path>/idstools/snmp/idssnmp.properties
file.
Replace the <TDS v6.3 install path>/idstools/snmp/IBM-DIRECTORYSERVER-MIB
file by the <TDS v6.2 install path>/idstools/snmp/IBM-DIRECTORYSERVER-MIB
file.
Replace the <TDS v6.3 install path>/idstools/snmp/INET-ADDRESS-MIB
file by the <TDS v6.2 install path>/idstools/snmp/INET-ADDRESS-MIB
file.
Install Tivoli Directory
Integrator version 7.1.
If the install path of Tivoli Directory
Integrator is different from the default path, then set the environment
variable IDS_LDAP_TDI_HOME to point to Tivoli Directory Integrator install location.
Run the SNMP solution.
Using Active Directory synchronization solution
To use the Active Directory synchronization solution, do the
following:
If IBM Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3 instance newly configured
Install IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator version
7.1.
Configure the Active Directory synchronization solution using
the idsadscfg command. To know more about the idsadscfg command, see IBM Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3 Command Reference , and to know more about Active Directory
synchronization, see IBM Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3 Administration Guide.
If migrating a supported version of Tivoli Directory Server instance to Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3
Install IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator version
7.1.
After migrating the Tivoli Directory
Server instance to Tivoli Directory
Server version 6.3, configure the Active Directory synchronization
solution using the idsadscfg command. To know more about the idsadscfg
command, see IBM Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3 Command Reference , and to know more about Active Directory
synchronization, see IBM Tivoli Directory Server version
6.3 Administration Guide.
Restore the changes that you had made before migration to the <TDSinstance-home>/idsslapd-<instance>/etc/tdisoldir/solution.properties
file, if any.
Note:
Replacing the new solution.properties
file with the old file may not work because the format of the solution.properties
file that gets created when running idsadscfg command of 6.3 is different
from the old solution.properties file.
Run the Active Directory synchronization solution.
