Directory Server, for example, from Directory Server versions 4.0, 4.1, 4.11, 4.12,
4.13, or 5.0. This chapter describes the upgrade process in the following sections:
• Migration Overview (page 59)
• Migration Prerequisites (page 60)
• Identifying Custom Schema (page 61)
• Migration Procedure (page 63)
• Migrating a Replicated Site (page 64)
This chapter does not explain how to upgrade from Innosoft Distributed Directory
Server 4.5.1. That process is described in the Innosoft Distributed Directory Server

Migration Overview

Before you migrate your directory service, you should become familiar with the
new features offered in this release of the Directory Server.
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.
