Table 6 lists the SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 data and configuration files you will need to archive. For some data, such as password files and Domain Name Services (DNS) files, the files will work as they did with SCO OpenServer 5.0.5. Other data, such as MMDF mail configuration and printer configuration scripts will not work on UnixWare 7.1. These must be re-written.

There are several methods for archiving and restoring data on your UnixWare 7.1 system.
ARCserve IT
v6.6 from Computer Associates
–– a comprehensive, easy-to-use
product for archiving and restoring.
Emergency Recovery Backup Method
–– SCO commands (
emergency disk and
emergency rec
) that create bootable diskettes and tape (s) to archive the primary
hard disk.
Other SCO commands
–– ufsdump and ufsrestore
for archiving
ufs
systems;
cpio,
tar
, and
volcopy
for archiving and restoring UnixWare systems;
cpio
is especially
suitable for transferring files between different types of UNIX systems.
For this Integration Note, we will use the last two methods.
Data Backup Procedure
1.
Change directories to the top level of the data you want to migrate, using the
command
cd /<directory path>.
2.
Enter one of the following three
cpio
commands:
To archive to cartridge tape, use the command
find
. -depth -print -follow | cpio -ocvdB -O /dev/rct0
