Migrating
You can learn about migration, its types, scenarios, and various components that can be migrated through the information provided here.
In the context of IBM® Security Verify Directory Integrator, "migrating" can mean a number of things.
- Prepare relevant files (and their contents) to be used in a new location, on the same machine or a different one; or
- prepare relevant files to be used with a new version of the product.
The following table summarizes migration scenarios:
| Source & Destination versions equal? | Source & Destination install paths equal? | Scenario description |
|---|---|---|
| no | no | Migrate files to a new version, which is installed in a different location |
| no | yes | Migrate files to a new version, which will be installed in the same location |
| yes | no | Migrate files to a different installation of the same version |
| yes | yes | Restore backed up files to their original location |
Table 1. Migration scenarios
If you have to both migrate to a new version and a new location, you should do the version upgrade first, because here we will cover location migration only for the current release.
