Migrating to OS/2 Warp Server for e-business

4.4.3 Attended Installation Response Files

4.5 Finishing the Migration

When all the Base OS/2 system and LAN Server components have been installed, there is still some work to do.

If you migrated a Backup Domain Controller, verify that all its functions are correctly restored (for example, investigate the LSC.CMD and LSDCDB.CMD programs). If the machine was originally your Primary Domain Controller, you will have to switch the roles back with the NET ACCOUNTS command.

If you migrated a File and Print server, also verify that the aliases, shares, and access controls have been restored correctly.

If you migrated your Primary Domain Controller, then check that everything is now in place and that your users can access the network and all the shared files.

Important Note

During the migration, many parameter settings are reset to their default values (PATH information is conserved from your previous settings, but most, if not all, of the tuning parameters are reset to their default values). So, an important part of the post-migration task will certainly be to restore these parameters to the values present before the migration if those numbers are still correct.
One way to do so is to utilize a custom-written utility, CUBE.CMD,that can perform modifications to a CONFIG.SYS file. Using this utility in our CID scenario, we have included it on the CD-ROM with its associated documentation.
