You are right! Using mds_backup / mds_restore scripts I have already done in
the same way that you described and worked fine. But there is a fact that I
forgot to mention. The current installation is based on a lot of updates...
NG FP1, FP3 and now NG+AI R55. The problem is that with this old
installation I can´t manage VPN-1 Edge devices from Provider-1. There is no
support in current Provider-1 installation. So a fresh R55 installation was
the solution for this issue. I don´t know if there is another way to do
that... suggestions?!

 

Thanks,

 

Gustavo.

Hi Gustavo,

 

You are killing yourself with migration.  Based on what you've stated below,
because

no changes in IP and everything is the same, just the hardware change.  If
that is

the case, you need to do the following:

 

On the old Provider-1 box:

1) mdsenv

2) mdsstop

3) mkdir /var/backups

4) cd /var/backups

5) mds_backup

6) scp everything from the /var/backups directory to an ftp server

7) shutdown the old provider-1 box (to ensure there will be NO ip conflicts)

 

On the new Provider-1 box:

1) turn it on

2) install Provider-1 software on this box with the same HFAs as the old
one,

3) mkdir /var/backups

4) download everything that uploaded earlier to the ftp server,

5) mdsenv

6) mdsstop

7) cd /var/backups

8) mds_restore

 

Everything will work without SIC reset.  What you can NOT is to do an
mds_restore

on solaris with backup from a Provider-1 SPLAT and vice versa.   Between
solaris and

solaris or SPLAT and SPLAT, it will work like a charms.  I've done this many
times

with no issues.

 

That's it.  

 

have fun....

Hi All,



I have a Provider-1 R55 HFA-17 on a Solaris 9 machine and I am trying to
migrate the CMAs to another machine (Solaris 9 - fresh installation). I have
trying all procedures described on documentation ( migrate_assist,
cma_migrate / no IP changes ) and the migration seems to be ok. But when I
start the CMA, all gateways can not communicate with Provider-1. SIC can not
be established, even if I reset both smart center and gateway´s SIC. It
seems to be an internal certificate problem, but I don´t know how to solve
that. Documentation says that if I don´t have CMA´s IP change, everything it
will work fine without the need to reset SIC.



Has anybody already got that kind of problem?



Thanks,



Gus.
