10.2 Launch Migration Wizard and Create a Project File

  1. If you have not already done so, start the Server Consolidation and Migration Toolkit.

    By default, the toolkit is installed in c:\program files\novell server consolidation and migration toolkit. You can access it on the desktop by clicking Start > Programs > Novell Server Consolidation and Migration Toolkit > Novell Server Consolidation and Migration Toolkit.

  2. Read the Welcome screen, then click Create or Open Project.

  3. Select NetWare (eDirectory), then click Next.

  4. Select Migrate Data to New Server (Hardware Upgrade), then click Next.

    NetWare Migration Wizard is launched.

  5. Read the About screen, then click OK.

  6. Do one of the following:

    • To start a new migration project, select Create a New Project > OK.

    • To open an existing project, select Open an Existing Project > OK, select the project file you want to work on, and then click Open.

    • To open the last project you worked on, select Open Last Project > OK.

  7. Name the project, select a place to save it, type a descriptive filename, then click Next.

    By default, Migration Wizard saves all projects to c:\program files\novell migration wizard. You can click Browse to select a different location.

    Migration Wizard uses a project (.mdb) file to record your progress throughout the migration. At any point before the migration is complete, you can exit Migration Wizard and restart the utility to pick up where you left off.

    The filename can be up to 64 characters long and can include any character except \ * ? < > | “ /. It is a good idea to use a standard naming convention to clearly identify each project.

  8. Select the eDirectory tree that contains your source server, then click Next.

    If necessary, click the Login button to attach to the tree.

  9. Select your source server from the eDirectory tree, then click Next.

    If necessary, navigate the tree until you find the desired source server.

  10. Select the eDirectory tree that contains your destination server, then click Next.

    If necessary, click the Login button to attach to the tree.

  11. Select your destination server from the destination eDirectory tree, then click Next.

    If necessary, navigate the tree until you find the destination server. It should be the only server in the tree.

  12. To create the project file with the information you have entered thus far, click Create.
