The destination server is the new computer that is to receive the data from the source server. This
server must be installed into a temporary tree and it must be the only server in that tree.
10.2 Preparing the Source Server for Migration
Before you launch NetWare Migration Wizard from the Server Consolidation and Migration Toolkit,
follow these steps to prepare the source server:
1 Shut down any applications, products, or services (virus scan software, backup software, etc.)
2 Verify the health of eDirectory by loading DSRepair and running the following three options:
3 Back up eDirectory and all data on the server.
4 Remove any unnecessary applications, then delete and purge unused files and folders.
10.3 Installing the Destination Server

migrating to.
1 Obtain the NetWare installation software for the version of NetWare you require: NetWare 6.0,
2 Prepare the new server hardware as recommended in the NetWare installation documentation.
