If you want to migrate to R60, use the upgrade_export for R60.

The error message indicates "/conf/rulebases_5_0.fws does not exists". Did you check if the file exists under $FWDIR/conf.

Hi,

I have downloaded the upgrade tools from CP site.

I have tried to run the upgrade_export on my current management server R55

However, I got an error when I run this

# ./upgrade_export -d exportr55

You are required to close all Check Point clients before the Export
operation begins.
If the export fails, stop Check Point services and run the upgrade_export
command again.
Press ENTER when ready..

Hi Clive,

Are you planning to use ClusterXL for clustering?

About cluster, you cannot setup cluster and management on the same box. You need to have a separate management and two other boxes to setup cluster. Once you have this infrastructure, you can follow these steps.

1. Use the upgrade_export from NGX R60 cd to do an upgrade_export. Run unixinstallscript from the NGX CD and select export configuration. 2. Store the exported file in a directory and transfer this to the NGX R60 box. 3. Do an upgrade_import onto the NGX R60 box. You can also do a fresh install and select advanced upgrade using the exported configuration. 4. Follow the cluster configuration guidelines to configure the smart dashboard objects for the cluster. Install policy on the cluster. You will need a common IP, sync network etc.

Regards,

Dear FW-1 list members,

Hope someone can help me here. Let me explain my situation.

I am currently running single NGX55 on Solaris 8 and SmartCenter on a
different box (Solaris 9).

I have been assigned to a project to setup a cluster(load
balance/fail-over)
firewall. I have just setup a test box on a Solaris 9 box running both
NGX60
and Smartcenter(just to playing around). I am wondering if I can export
the
old configurations + policy from my old NGX55 to the new NGX60?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Clive
