migrating calendar DB form one host to another
i try to migrate the calendar backend database to a different host:
pkginfo -l SUNWics5 gives me
VERSION: 6.0, REV=2003.11.14.18.12.58
for both installation
what i try is
csbackup -f database /tmp/calbackup on host A
and
csrestore database /tmp/calbackup on host B
after the restore i have several problems:
"csdb check" returns:
Failed dbversion check. Version numbers are mismatched.
Please migrate the DB using csmigrate tool.
Calendar database consistency check failed, error = -2
"csmigrate /var/opt/SUNWics5/csdb /tmp/calbackup.postmigrate" returns:
Failure during database migration, Target DB open failed
"cscal list" gives me:
Failed dbversion check. Version numbers are mismatched.
Please migrate the DB using cs5migrate tool.
the cs5migrate tool is part of patch 116577, however this patch is
obsoleted by patch 121657 which comes without cs5migrate

Hi shane,
thanks for your help, i have Solaris 10 with a slighly different Kernel patchlevel:
newHost: SunOS 5.10 Generic_118833-36
oldHost: SunOS 5.10 Generic_118833-03
The CalServer Patchlevels are:
newHost: showrev -p | grep ics5
Patch: 121657-15 Obsoletes: 117706-08, 116577-36 Requires: Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWics5, SUNWica5

CalServer gives me a hard time to find out the actual version, i tried almost every command in sbin with a "-version" option ;-)
is there a way to find out the actual version ?
The only thing i could find out was the Version of the Berkely Database used because this shows up in the admin.log:
[04/Jun/2007:14:16:40 +0200] bert csdb[12497]: Store Critical: Failed DB version check, expected 4.0.0 [BerkeleyDB] found 3.0.0 [BerkeleyDB]

Ok that should be fine. Problems come about when you transfer across hardware platforms (i.e. Sparc vs x86) due to endian issues etc. etc.

Go by the patch-level you have installed.

What it looks like you are doing is actually 'upgrading' whilst transferring the database since one system is SCS6.2 and the other is SCS6.3. Now I'm not sure if that can be done in the way you have proposed -- suggest you have a look at the comm-suite-5 upgrade guide..

My interweb appears to be busted at the moment (hope this post works ;))
