Netscape DIRECTORY SERVER 6.01 Installation Manual page 75

• If you want to continue to run your legacy Directory Server, when you install
Directory Server 6.0 choose different ports for LDAP traffic and for secured
connections from the ones used by your legacy Directory Server.
If you will not be running your legacy Directory Server, use the same port
numbers to ensure that any directory clients that have static configuration
information (including directory server port numbers) will continue to work.
• Your Directory Server 6.0 must be running when you execute the migration
script.
• Any custom schema that you created in a legacy 4.x Directory Server must be
stored in the default files or included using an include statement in the
file. The default files for custom schema are
slapd.conf
and
slapd.user_at.conf files
schema that is not stored in those files, refer to the procedure described in
"Identifying Custom Schema" to move it to those files.
• The migration script does not migrate any data from Directory Server 4.x to 6.0
if both have the same suffix name. To ensure data migration, install your
Directory Server 6.0 with some dummy suffix names.
• Any custom schema that you created in a 5.0 Directory Server must be stored
in an LDIF file in the
/usr/netscape/servers/slapd-serverID/config/schema
• On UNIX, set the following environment variables:
PERL5LIB=/usr/netscape/servers/bin/slapd/admin/bin

PERL5LIB=server5root\bin\slapd\admin\bin
and add
server5root/bin/slapd/admin/bin
