Rick, It looks like it is ok just using the same old data and point to the db directory. However, I experienced one hick-up. During the migration of the config data (dse.ldif) within migrate-ds.pl, the migration of the nsstate attribute for the uniqueid generator fails. When starting the directory, I get: [03/Apr/2008:15:46:26 -0400] uuid - read_state: failed to get generator's state [03/Apr/2008:15:46:26 -0400] uuid - uuid_init: failed to get generator's state [03/Apr/2008:15:46:26 -0400] uniqueid generator - uniqueIDGenInit: generator ini tialization failed Do you have any idea? -Reinhard -----Original Message----- From: fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com] On Behalf Of Rich Megginson Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 1:30 PM To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project.

I don't think we write any longs or other 64-bit values to the database with 1.1. So it may just work and be fine. > Cheers, > -Reinhard > > -----Original Message----- > From: fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com > [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com] On Behalf Of Rich > Megginson > Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 12:12 PM > To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project. > Subject: Re: Is it possible to migrate > Berkeley > 4.2(32bit) based directory to 4.2 (64bit) > > Reinhard Nappert wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Does anyone know, if that works? >> >> > Are you talking about the migration script migrate-ds-admin.pl?
