Preparing the Source Server
The source server is the existing server that contains the data that will be
copied to the destination NDS tree.
 The source server must be running NetWare 3.11 or later.
Load the following NLM
TM
program at the server console of each
NetWare 3 source server that you are planning to migrate:
 For NetWare 3.11, load TSA311.NLM
 For NetWare 3.12 and 3.2, load TSA312. NLM
 Use SYSCON to verify that you have the console operator right to the
source server.
 Back up all data on the source server.
Preparing the Servers in the Destination NDS Tree
The destination NDS tree is the NDS tree that contains the servers that will
receive the data migrated from the NetWare 3 source server. After data is
copied from the source server, it appears in the destination NDS tree.
Make sure that all the servers that you are migrating data to in the destination
NDS tree have the following:
 NetWare 4, NetWare 5, or NetWare 6 installed.
NOTE: NetWare Migration Wizard 6 does not migrate to NetWare 4.10 servers.
 The IPX protocol running and bound to the network card of each NetWare
server in the destination NDS tree that you are migrating files to.
WARNING: If IPX is not bound and running on the destination server, the file
migration will fail. To check whether IPX is bound, enter CONFIG at the server
console of the destination server.
Continue with the next section, "Creating a Template Object."
Creating a Template Object
This is an optional prerequisite task. A Template object is used to define
additional NDS user attributes to NetWare 3 users during the migration. We
recommend that you use a Template object because it is an organized way to
migrate your NetWare 3 users to the NDS tree and manage them once they are
there.
