Option Alternate Options Description
case, the oldsroot parameter
sets the directory from which
the migration is run (such as
machine_new:/migrate/
opt/redhat-ds/), while
the actualsroot parameter
sets the server root, (/opt/
redhat-ds/).
--instance -i This parameter specifies a
specific instance to migrate.
This parameter can be used
multiple time to migrate several
instances simultaneously. By
default, the migration script
migrates all Directory Server
instances on the machine.
--file=name -f name This sets the path and name
of the .inf file provided
with the migration script.
The only parameter is the
General.ConfigDirectoryAdminPwd
parameter, which is the
configuration directory
administrator's password. Any
other configuration setting is
ignored by the migration script.
--cross -c or -x This parameter is used when
the Directory Server is being
migrated from one machine
to another with a different
architecture. For cross-
platform migrations, only
certain data are migrated.
This migration action takes
database information exported
to LDIF and imports into the
new 8.1 databases. Changelog
information is not migrated. If
a supplier or hub is migrated,
then all its replicas must be
reinitialized.
--debug -d[dddd] This parameter turns on
debugging information. For the
-d flag, increasing the number
of d's increases the debug
level.
--logfile name -l This parameter specifies a log
file to which to write the output.
