Migration Overview

Before you migrate your directory service to Directory Server 6.0, you should
become familiar with the new features offered in this release of the Directory
Server; see "Directory Server Overview," on page 7.
The migration process is performed by running the
the system where your legacy Directory Server is installed. You must shut down
your directory service before running the migration script.
