To capture the results of the migration, use the following format:
makenis -r resultfilename -d domainname
To remove the existing domain data and then migrate, use the following
format:
makenis -rd domainname
To specify the context where you want to create your Domain object and
data, enter it as the contextname:
makenis -d domainname -x contextname
Edit the context parameter by prefixing each of the dots in the Relative
Distinguished Names with a backslash (\) to distinguish them from
eDirectory names.
To specify an NIS makefile other than the default SYS:ETC/NIS/
NISMAKE, use the following format:
makenis -d domainname -f makefilepath
To specify the text files that you want to migrate, modify the NIS
makefile. The NIS makefile is in the following format:
map name full path parameters (if any)
The comment character is the pound sign (#).
If nothing is specified, all the files in the makefile are migrated.
For each map, you can specify the SECURE parameter so that only
requests coming from secure ports are able to access the data. You can
also specify the migration options: UPDATE, REPLACE, or MERGE.
For the Password map, you can specify two additional parameters: -u uid
(which stops users with a UID less than a particular value from migrating
to eDirectory) and AUTOGEN (which generates a UID from the program
itself).
You must specify the text file in the full path in DOS name format.
To migrate specific maps, use the following format:
makenis -d domainname mapname1, mapname2
To migrate a map from a particular offset in a specified map text file, use
the following format:
makenis -d domainname mapname -lp lineoffset
Or
makenis -d domainname mapname, -bp byteoffset
