Would like to know if there are any migration tools out there to help me move our Users file in sam from HP 11 server to new HP Itanium server.
Was give one script but while it migrated the users file over to new server, the rights and ownerships of each user were jumbled.
Any suggstions appreciated. Would save days of data entry if we could find another way.

Hi,
Try to use make_tape_recovery -IA command to backup vg00 from your HP 11 Server and then use this tape backup to recover your user files to your HP Itanium Server.

[Steven E. Protter]

You can extract /etc/passwd /etc/group and /etc/shadow if you use it from a backup and transfer the non admin users to your new system.

The Ignite backup will not restore an entire system to an Itanium server.

You could also set up ldap and make the itanium a slave server and then convert it to a master after its working and cut off from its master. Same principle might work with NIS.
