Mount 6.5 Store on 6.7.1 ?

Andy Knipp

OK, doing a 6.5 (SP3) to 7.1 upgrade on Solaris. New hardware. POC was to take a prod snapshot (6.5) upgrade to 6.7.2. Worked. Running iwmigrate (the CLT suggested we do) and then plan to copy to the new 7.1 server.

Since there is the old server in production, they want to incrementally upgrade later. The plan was mount a 6.5 copy on the 6.7.2 temp server, run iwmigrate again and copy again.

So we took a copy, changed ownership from root to iwts, added the store in iw.cfg and tried iwstoreadm -a. It is complaining that the store is not empty. Well duh, it shouldn't be, because I want to use the store not create a new one.

From the manuals and KBs I found it seemed that all I need to do was recursively chown the iwstore to iwts.

Any ideas ? Tips/Pointers/RTFMs appreciated.
