Before restarting the Archive server, ensure the following:
Migration of the Archive volume is successful.
(Optional) Migration of Primary volume is successful. In the ArkConfig.xml file under the job tag, ensure that the server name and context reflect the configuration details of the target machine.
The migrated data from the volumes and database is consistent.
Edit ArkConfig.xml to update the Archive volume path under archivePath tag on the OES 2 SP3 Linux server.
Ensure that the admin is a part of the novlxtier group. For more information, refer to Caveats on Upgrading from OES 1 to OES 2 SP1
in the OES 2 SP3: Novell Archive and Version Services 2.1 Administration Guide for Linux.
Ensure that the admin is LUM-enabled on the target server running Archive and Version Services.
Ensure that the read only attribute is not set on the ARK volume.
To check if the ARK volume has the read only attribute, enter attrib /media/nss/ARK. The output of the above command includes the read only (ro) attribute.
To delete the read only attribute, enter attrib -c ro /media/nss/ARK
To restart the Archive Service on OES 2 SP3 Linux server, enter:
rcnovell-ark start
To verify that migration completed successfully, check the availability of file versions by using the NSS File Version Utility.
