7.2 Handling Remote Document Storage Areas

For background information about this process, see Section 4.4.3, Remote Document Storage Areas for a Post Office.

If the Server Migration Utility detects one or more remote document storage areas belonging to a post office, it provides a list of their locations.

Remote Document Storage Areas page
  1. Mount each remote document storage area to the Linux server where you want the remote document storage area to reside.

    If you need help with a mount command, see Section 1.1, Mount Commands to review the mount commands used by the Server Migration Utility.

  2. On the Linux server, change to the directory where you had the Server Migration Utility store the Linux RPMs during the migration (worksheet item 7)

    The default location is /tmp/groupwise/software. At this point in the migration process, the GroupWise Database Copy utility (DBCopy) has been installed, so you can use it to manually copy the remote document storage areas.

  3. Copy each remote document storage area to its planned destination (worksheet item 8), using the following dbcopy command:

    ./dbcopy -m -b /storage_area_directory /destination_directory
    

    The -m switch indicates that DBCopy is being used for migration to Linux.The -b switch indicates that DBCopy is being used to migrate a documentation storage area containing document BLOB (binary large object) files.

    Instructions for updating the locations in ConsoleOne® are provided later, along with other ConsoleOne updates.
