Hello List,
I am closing in on my target date to switch over to FDS. On my
test machines I have been running with FC4. I need to re-install
the operating system and when I do I will have to use RHEL4.
My plan was to shutdown the DS.
Then make a tarball of /opt/fedora-ds and several other directories.
Next re-install with RHEL4
Drop in my iptables
Install fedora-ds and verify the OS / performance settings.
Then extract my fedora-ds tarball
and then hold my breath and start the DS service(s) and presto all
is well???
I have no idea. It should work, but I really don't know if there
are any runtime dependencies in the FDS FC4 RPM binaries that will
break when run on RHEL4.
I plan on installing the FDS with the rpm from:
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Download
and use the fedora-ds-1.0.2-1.RHEL4.i386.opt.rpm
Does this sound like a feasible approach?
I am a little unsure if it will break any of my configured ssl
stuff. Which is a basic self-signed scenario using the
/opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin/certutil for the key generation.
I don't think that will be a problem as long as you don't change the
hostname of the machine.
Also note that upgrading could be a problem since you aren't doing a
standard RPM installation to begin with. You might be able to "trick"
it by installing the Fedora RPM and then untarring over top of that.
Ah, Now I see the problem. What about only untarring the following
directories from my backed up DS from /opt/fedora-ds:
admin-serv
alias
slapd-[hostname]
Add shared/config, clients/orgchart/config.txt, clients/dsgw/context,
clients/dsgw/pbconfig, and clients/dsgw/config to that list as well.
This worked. The only snag I ran into was the pid file in the
slapd-[host]/logs directory. Permissions looked ok, but until I actually
removed it did it fire up and run.
Replicaton and all seems to be working.
I still have my other replica to redo so I will have a chance to double verify
this migration path.
Will post if anything bad happens.
Thanks Again,
