• 73ToTxt
Each export tool directory (71ToTxt/, 72ToTxt/, and 73ToTxt/) contains the following files:
• Two precompiled Java™ classes
• A tool shell script
• A tool batch script
The export file to use is determined by the older version of the Certificate System being migrated.
NOTE
Each compilation batch and shell script is dependent on a specific version of the Java
software development kit defined in its comments.
Certificate System migration import utilities are files named TxtToversion. To migrate the Certificate
Management System 7.x servers to Certificate System 8.0, use the TxtTo80 script. The import tool

Each compilation batch and shell script is dependent upon a specific version of the Java™ software
development kit as defined in the comments.
