re : moving of HPUX 11.11 to HPUX11.31 ( RP to RX )

[vinowg]

Hi Guys,

      Can anyone help, I'm trying to move my OS from RP 3440 running hpux11.11 to a RX2660 running hpux11.31. I understand I only need to move certain file like /etc/profiles, /etc/group, /etc/passwd and /tcb directory.  Can someone advice the correct file to move so that I can bring up the hpux11.31 with the users account intact?? Kindly node, I dont have a /tcb directory server is stand alone. Kindly advice what are the files and directory I need to move ?? Appreicate??

Regadrs

Shalom,

Lots of ways to go. I would simply copy the contents of tcb to a tar file, transfer it across and untar.

You could consider converting to un-trusted system first, then /etc/passwd would be all you need. Then you can go trusted after migration. This however might cause some users to unexpectedly expire.
