iFolder is installed and configured on the target machine.
You must perform the File System Migration for the source simias data path.

In this scenario, the target server is installed in the same tree as the source server. On successful completion of Transfer ID, the target server functions with the same credentials (such as IP address and hostname) as the source server and source server node is no longer available in the network.
The following data is migrated from the source server to the target server:
The simias data store path
The configuration files
Proxy user (migrates along with simias and configuration files)
Install OES by using YaST on the target server.
Stop apache from source server using the following command: rcapache2 stop.
Configure iFolder on target server with same values as source server. For more information, see Configuring the iFolder Enterprise Server in the Novell iFolder 3.9.2 Administration Guide.

Migrate the simias data store path from source server to target server in the same volume and directory structure. For more information, see Section 17.4, Migrating File System Using GUI.
