Netscape 6.2 & 389 Directory server replication

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have been given a bunch of old Netscape 6.2 servers that need 
replacing with 389 Directory server, is it possible to have a Netscape 
6.2 master and a 389 Directory server replicating between each other?

The current setup consists of 2 Netscape Multimasters and 7 slaves, I 
think the easiest solution would be to build 2 389 Masters with 389 
slaves and have at least one of each Masters replicating between each 
other.  Then to move the applications to the new platform the clients 
just need to change the IP they are talking to, then we always have the 
option of moving back if there are any problems.

Does this sound like a sensible way to do it?  The Netscape boxes are 
actually critical production boxes so we can afford very little downtime 
if any, and if we have the 2 setups replicating to each other the 
rollback plan is easy - otherwise we will need to somehow log all 
changes and manually apply those either way to keep everything in sync 
when we cutover and rollback. 

I'm rather new to LDAP so its a steep learning curve!

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Nick.
