Directory Server Migration
Hi,
We want to migrate our running directory server to a new server.My query is :
- My present setup has a directory structure :
o=abc.com,dc=xyz,dc=net.
- My future setup to be
o=abc.com,dc=def,dc=net
Plz advice how this can be done.
TIA
Nawaz

Basically:
- Export your current database to ldif (db2ldif is probably the best method if you're using Sun's directory server).
- Replace all "dc=xyz," instances with "dc=def," in the exported ldif. Perhaps a few "dc: xyz" --> "dc: def" also.
- Create a database on your new directory server using your preferred suffix.
- Import the ldif.
Of course, all your directory clients will also need to have their configuration updated to use the new base DN.
