SCO OpenServerTM 5 to UnixWare® 7 Migration Tools
-
The Migration Tools and Migration Guide provide a
pathway from OpenServer Release 5 to the UnixWare 7 platform.
The Migration Tools automate the process of migrating user
accounts, TCP/IP networking, and printers. The online
Migration Guide (included with this distribution)
comprises procedures for migrating subsystems not covered
by the tools, including mail and messaging, non-system data
files, and so on.
The OpenServer system to be migrated is referred to as the
source system and the Unixware 7 installation is known
as the target system.
System Requirements
-
Source system: OpenServer 5.0.4 or 5.0.5
Target system: UnixWare 7 (7.1.0, or 7.1.1)
RAM: 32MB (64 MB recommended)

Installation Notes
-
The Migration Tools consist of two packages: one for the
source system (OpenServer) to be migrated, and a second for
the target system (Unixware 7) where the migrated files
will eventually reside.
