This section describes the procedure for migrating an HP DCE 1.4 server on HP-UX 10.01 to HP DCE 1.6 on HP-UX 10.30.

See Managing HP-UX Software with SD-UX and the swcopy (1M), swinstall (1M) and swremove (1M) man pages for complete information on all aspects of HP-UX 10.x installation.

For information about migrating from HP-UX 10.x to HP-UX 10.30, see Installing HP-UX 10.30 and Updating HP-UX 10.x to HP-UX 10.30 (part number B2355-90126).

Migration Procedures

HP highly recommends that you do a system backup before starting to do an update.

Migrating a System Without Retaining Cell Configuration

If you are migrating an HP DCE 1.4 server on HP-UX 10.01 to HP DCE 1.6 on HP-UX 10.30, but you do not want to preserve your existing cell configuration:

  1. Stop the cell using dce_config STOP at each cell member or run DCM from SAM to stop the entire cell.

  2. Use dce_config REMOVE or run the DCE Configuration Manager from SAM to remove the cell databases.

  3. Upgrade the system from HP-UX 10.01 to HP-UX 10.30.

  4. Install HP DCE 1.6 server software as described in Chapter 4, and reconfigure DCE.

Migrating a System and Preserving Current Cell Configuration

If you are migrating an HP DCE 1.4 server on HP-UX 10.01 to HP DCE 1.6 on HP-UX 10.30, and you want to preserve your existing cell configuration, perform the following steps:

  1. If you are migrating a security server system, stop secd using the dcecp -c registry stop <replica-name> command.

  2. Stop DCE on the system, using the dce_config STOP command from the main menu; if DFS is running, ignore any warnings concerning running processes.

    CAUTION: Hewlett-Packard recommends that you create a single network source area (depot) containing HP-UX 10.30 and HP DCE 1.6 server software, so you can simultaneously install HP-UX 10.30 and HP DCE 1.6. If you do not install HP-UX 10.30 and HP DCE 1.6 at the same time, your old HP DCE 1.4 servers will be automatically started when your system reboots after HP-UX 10.30 installation completes. This is an unsupported configuration.
  3. Prepare the network source area (depot) using swcopy. The depot should contain both HP-UX 10.30 and HP DCE 1.6 software.

  4. Upgrade the system from HP-UX 10.01 to HP-UX 10.30. If you installed from a unified network source area as recommended above, installation of HP DCE 1.6 is complete.

    NOTE: If you did not install from a unified network source area, you must continue with Steps 5 through 7.
  5. Perform this step only if you did not install HP-UX from a unified network source area as recommended above. Stop DCE on the system, using the dce_config STOP command from the main menu.

  6. Perform this step only if you did not install HP-UX from a unified network source area as recommended above.

    Install HP DCE 1.6 as described in Chapter 4. (If DFS is running, you must reboot after the install.)

  7. Perform this step only if you did not install HP-UX from a unified network source area as recommended above.

    Restart DCE using the dce_config START command from the dce_config main menu or using DCM.
