MIGRATE USER

Use the MIGRATE USER command to change all user profiles for a given client node name in the NETUsers file on the server. To change individual user profiles based on client login name, use the CHANGE USER command.

MIGRATE USER can be abbreviated to MU. MIGRATE USER VERBOSE can be abbreviated to MUV.

You must have superuser capability to execute this command.

NETUtil Syntax

  netutil=> MIGRATE USER [VERBOSE]

  Current Client Node Name : CurrentClientNodeName

  New     Client Node Name (ClientNodeName(ARPA value)) : NewClientNodeName

Migrate All Profiles (y/n)? { y [es] n [o]}

Parameters

CurrentClientNodeName: is the client name for the user profile(s) you want to change.
NewClientNodeName: is the new client name for the user profile(s) you want to change. You should enter the ARPA host name here. The client node name is not case-sensitive and is stored and displayed exactly as it was entered. If a value for (ClientNodeName(ARPA value)) is displayed, you may press Return to select that value.

Description

If you execute MIGRATE USER VERBOSE, all diagnostic information written to the log file will also appear on screen. See the description of the log file below.
When all migration completes, totals for successful and unsuccessful migration attempts are displayed. Finally, you will be prompted to save the migration changes.
For each changed profile, a migration log file, /tmp/hpdamig.log, is appended to on the server and contains the following information:
- a timestamp
- the command name MIGRATE USER
- the user name
- current client node name (NS value)
- new client node name (ARPA value)
- login client information

Example

In this example, the MIGRATE USER command is issued twice; first with the VERBOSE option, second without. The ARPA host name value for the new client node name could only be determined for the first profile.
