Run the backupConfig command on the dmgr and all old nodes

Step 1: Scenario 2: Migrating cells across operating systems using the command-line tools

If the process fails, save the current dmgr and node configuration to a file that you can use later for recovery purposes.

Procedure

1. Run the backupConfig command against dmgr...

   cd dmgr_PROFILE_ROOT/bin
   v6.1_PROFILE_ROOT/v61dmgr01/bin/backupConfig.sh
        /mybackup_old_host/v61dmgr01backupBeforeV8migration.zip
        -username myuser
        -password mypass
        -nostop
   

   ...where mybackup_old_host is the location where the configuration restore points are stored.

2. Run the backupConfig command against profile

   cd node_PROFILE_ROOT/bin
   v6.1_PROFILE_ROOT/v61node01/bin/backupConfig.sh
       /mybackup_old_host/v61node01rbackupBeforeV8migration.zip
       -username myuser
       -password mypass
       -nostop
