Performing a Migration
Before beginning, make sure you have reviewed the differences between an in-place upgrade and a
migration. See
Chapter 12, “In-place Upgrade Versus Migration,” on page 75 .
Use the following checklist to verify that all of the steps are completed in the correct order for a
successful migration of the Identity Manager system. Follow these steps for each Identity Manager
server in your environment.
‰
Create a backup of the current configuration of your Identity Manager solution. This is done by
creating exports of your drivers or creating a Designer project of your Identity Manager
solution. For more information, see
Section 13.1, “Creating a Backup of the Current
Configuration,” on page 79 .
‰
Install the desired operating system. For a list of supported platforms, see Chapter 6, “System
Requirements,” on page 45 .
‰
Install eDirectory
TM
8.8.5 on the server. For more information, see the eDirectory Installation
Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/edir88/index.html) .
‰
Add the same eDirectory replicas that are on the current Identity Manager server to this new
server. For more information, see “
Administering Replicas” (http://www.novell.com/
documentation/edir88/edir88/data/fbgciaad.html) in the eDirectory Administration Guide
(http://www.novell.com/documentation/edir88/pdfdoc/edir88/edir88.pdf) .
‰
Install Identity Manager 3.6.1. Use the Chapter 4, “Basic Identity Manager System Checklist,”
on page 39 to verify that all steps are completed.
‰
If any of the drivers in the driver set are Remote Loader drivers, upgrade the Remote Loader
server for each driver. For more information, see
Section 13.6, “Upgrading the Remote
Loader,” on page 83 .
‰
(Conditional) If the old server is your User Application server, perform the following
additional steps:
‰ The User Application driver must be migrated in Designer. For more information, see the
Roles Based Provisioning Module Migration Guide (http://www.novell.com/
documentation/idmrbpm361/index.html) .
‰ Create a new Roles Service driver. The Roles Service driver is not migrated. If you have
an existing Role Service driver for version 3.6.1, you must create a new driver for version
3.6.1. For more information, see the
Roles Based Provisioning Module Migration Guide
(http://www.novell.com/documentation/idmrbpm361/index.html) .
‰
Deploy the migrated User Application driver into the Identity Vault. For more
information, see the
Roles Based Provisioning Module Migration Guide (http://
www.novell.com/documentation/idmrbpm361/index.html) .
‰
Install the User Application on this new server. For more information, see the Roles Based
Provisioning Module Installation Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/
idmrbpm361/install/data/bookinfo.html) .
‰
Add the new server to the driver set. For more information, see Section 14.1, “Adding the New
Server to the Driver Set,” on page 90 .
‰ Change the server-specific information for each driver. For more information, see Section 14.2,
“Changing Server-Specific Information,” on page 90 .
