Run NetWare Accelerated Upgrade
1 From your workstation, log in to the staging server and double-click the
NetWare Accelerated Upgrade executable (ACCUPG.EXE), located at
the root of the NetWare 6 Operating System CD.
2 Read the Welcome screen and click the right-arrow.
3 Enter the location where you copied or mounted the NetWare 6 files to the
staging server and click the right-arrow.
4 Enter the password to the staging server (the server that holds the copy of
the NetWare 6 CD files) and click OK.
5 Select your target server from the list and click the right-arrow.
6 If prompted, enter the username, password, tree name and context for the
target server, and then click OK.
7 Click the right-arrow.
At this point, NetWare Accelerated Upgrade checks the target server to
make sure that the selected server meets the minimum software and
hardware requirements of NetWare 6. This might take a few minutes.
8 Review the critical requirement screen and make sure that the target
server meets the minimum NetWare 6 server requirements.
NOTE: If you have applied the Support Packs listed in the “Prepare the Target
Server” on page 15, you won’t have any problems meeting these requirements.
Some items appearing on the list are not critical requirements. But the
following requirements must be met before continuing:
 NetWare server version
 Directory Services version
 CLIB version
 HCSS is not loaded (NetWare 4 only)
 SFT
TM
III
TM
server is not used (NetWare 4 only)
 Unsupported drivers are unloaded (NetWare 4 only)
If the target server does not meet a critical minimum requirement, the
server property will be listed in red. NetWare Accelerated Upgrade will
not allow you to continue until you have met all critical minimum
requirements.
IMPORTANT: If prompted to update your NICI file, follow the instructions in Step
2 on page 14 before continuing.
