Can't migrate security

I'm trying to upgrade 5.2 to 6.3.
I tried to do a test migration by copying the production ldap instance folder into the test server. The test server doesn't have 5.2 installed, just the instance directory I copied from production. When I use dsmig to migrate the security settings, I was prompted for the old certificate database password:
root@ldaptest-c:/opt/SUNWdsee/ds6/bin# !257
./dsmig migrate-security -v -p 389 -P 636 /opt/ldap/serverroot/slapd-salt /opt/ldapdata/salt
Backing up file (/opt/ldapdata/salt/migration/migration_status) ..... DONE.
Launching Security Migration of server instance /opt/ldap/serverroot/slapd-salt .....
Stopping server instance /opt/ldapdata/salt ..... Directory Server instance '/opt/ldapdata/salt' is not running
Enter the old certificate database password:
Certificate database password has not been stored.
/opt/SUNWdsee/ds6/bin/dsadm exited with error 11.
Operation "migrate-security" failed.
The person who setup the old instance didn't remember setting up a certicate password and I can't find any information regarding this on the migration manual.
I also tried setting up a fully working 5.2 instance by copying 99user.ldif from the old server, use db2ldif and dump the data, and loading it. When I tried to migrate the fully working 5.2 instance, it didn't prompt for the password.
Is the password prompt normal since the production instance wasn't originally installed on the test server?
thx,
mike

Hi,
I've got exactly the same problem. Has anybody a solution?

  • Migrating Security from Native to External Authentication mode Servers

    Hi All,
    I am migrating applications from V7, V9 (doesn't use Shared services) to V11 (Shared Services Enabled) Essbase server.
    I am able to migrate the application definition using the Application Migration Wizard.
    Take level-0 export from the source server & load on the target server & do the default-calc or series of custom calcs depending upon the application's maintenance process.
    Using the Application Migration wizard, we can also migrate security only if both Source & Target servers use Native Authentication mode.
    This can be ruled out in my case as only Sources are native & Target is Shared services enabled.
    Here are few tools available to do bulk provisioning on a Shared Services enabled Essbase application -
    1. MAXL - Works great - But too tedious to create the MAXL statements based on the security definitions on the Source servers.
    2. CSS Import-Export utility - I heard it works only when both Source & Target are Shared services enabled. Can this be used for my case. Also heard many didn't find success with this one.
    3. LCM - Not sure if this can be used for security.
    Are there any other utilities?
    Has anyone done similar migrations before? Please let me know the best practice to do this.
    Appreciate your thoughts.
    -Ethan.

    It is much easier to go about that method, it is not always 100% successful with groups/users but gets most done.
    If you are past that stage then maybe try using the advanced security manager to extract security from your source environment.
    Then you could use the CSSImportExport Utility, first create a template from the information you extracted from your source and then run use the utility to provision users in the new environment.
    There are obviously other ways but that is the way I would prefer if using Shared services security.
    Cheers

  • Firefox 27.0.1 crashes and slow dow, useless for me.I want to change IE, how can I migrating my bookmarks to IE?

    I used Firefox for more than 10 years (actual version 27.0.1). Since2-3 days Firefox crashes and slows down. I have already blocked all the additions, without any results. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, the situation remained the same. I can’t really use Firefox support, because I had to wait more than 5 minutes to open the page. I made 2 virus research (MS Security Essential, and MS anti malware) I did not have virus.
    I returned to the base state of Firefox, It fonctioned, but after the restart of Windows, it started again slow down.
    I tried IE it function well without any problem, but it’s slightly strange for me, but I have to work, so I must use another one if Firefox is dying on my computer.
    Unfortunately I have more than hundred important bookmarks in Firefox which are necessary for my daily work, so I can’t simply uninstall Firefox and use IE.
    My question: If Firefox is not reparable how can I migrating all my bookmarks to IE?
    Thank you in advance for your help and instructions

    First of all thank you for your response
    I saved all my bookmarks to a library (I have created a library) and I used the importation function of IE, but it was partially successful, more than 70 % of the bookmark has disappeared. I suppose it was a mistake of the conversion made by IE. So I uninstalled and reinstalled again Firefox, thereafter I reinstated the bookmarks.
    I suppose, that I found a reason for the crashes and the freezing, probably it was a consequence of the adobe flash player 12. It seems Firefox has a conflict with adobe flash player.
    So as conclusion I have trapped between Firefox and IE, Firefox does not work well on my computer, IE work, but without my bookmark and without my usual comfort and customization of my Firefox…
    Just a note: during this letter writing, Firefox has slowed down 2 times.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

  • Is there anyway migrate security defined on members via web client Planning

    Hello there,
    Can somebody help me , I have migrated dimensions and everything, except security from 9.2 to 11.1.1.3.
    I see that the security defined on the members using the web client is not migrated which is causing the updateusers uitility to fail! I guess.
    Can somebody suggest how I can migarte security without fail.
    Thanks
    Vince

    Hi,
    Couple questions:
    1. Are you using the same Shared services or new shared services?
    2. Have you provisioned all users to the new Planning application
    Migrating security for Planning application has below steps: --
    SHARED SERVICES STEPS: --
    1. Make sure all users are migrated in shared services. [If you are using the same shared services, then this is not valid]
    2. If you are migrating MSAD, make user that MSAD is correctly configured in new Shared services.
    3. Since you are directly assigning access to users in Planning, all users need to be provisioned to minimum "Planner" access to the new planning application in Shared services. Do this for for native users as well as MSAD users.
    PLANNING STEPS: --
    4. Export planning security in old planning application v9 to a text file using ExportSecurity.cmd utility in $PLANNINGHOME\bin folder. A new fileSecFile.txt will be created in the same folder
    ExportSecurity.cmd /A=AppName,/U=adminuser,/P=password,/TO_FILE=SecFile
    5. Check the file for any access that needs to be revoked and manually edit the file.
    6. Copy the security file to bin directory on new instance.
    7. Goto new Planning application in V11 and migrate identities in web front end.
    8. Import security in Hyperion Planning using ImportSecurity.cmd utility in $PLANNINGHOME\bin folder in new planning application.
    ImportSecurity.cmd "AppName,adminuser,password,SL_COMMA,,SL_CLEARALL"
    9. Generate security filters by going in Planning app and "Administration" -> "manage security filters"
    10. Refresh database and security filters in v11
    Lets me know if this helps.
    Cheers,

  • Can't open Security & Privacy preference pane?...please help.

    Hi All,
    I would be grateful if anyone could assist... I can't seem to open the security & privacy preference pane.  I receive the following "Preferences Error" upon trying to click the icon in my system preferences:
    First click: You can’t open Security & Privacy preferences because it doesn’t work on an Intel-based Mac.
    Second click: Could not load Security & Privacy preference pane.
    I noticed the issue this past week when I installed some monitor callibration software.  After downloading, the software's interface text did not load (it was simply blank for the drop down menus).  The manufacturer tried to help me by clearing font cache and such, but that was not the issue.  When he next directed me to the S&P pane, that's when I noticed I couldn't open it to adjust anything.
    * I did go into Users & Groups and created a new admin user.  I was then able to open the Security & Privacy pane, and load the monitor calibration software without any problems, so it seems to be a user issue I suppose?  Tried to trash some security preferences, reinstalled 10.8.2, but with no luck.
    Thanks for your assistance!

    Try booting into the Safe Mode.  Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This does some maintenance routines and 3rd party applications don't load. Sometimes 3rd party applications are the problem. If your normal user account works in Safe Mode, it is probably a 3rd part application.

  • When I close firefox "everything " is cleared! EXCEPT when I open it again and anything i have copied to the clipboard (paste icon) remains lit... I believe this can be a security breach because I clear everything when closing firefox !!

    I have my settings to clear everything when I close firefox ver 3.6.13. If I copy something to the clipboard, the Paste icon lights up so I can paste the text... which is normal.
    The problem is when I close the browser and everything is suppose to clear (history, etc) the PASTE Icon still lights up for me to paste again.
    This can be a security breach because I want everything cleared when closing the browser !!!
    The only way I can rid myself of this problem is to restart the computer... which clears the clipboard of the operatinging... which is absolutely normal as well.
    I should not have to restart the computer each time.
    Try It !!! type text in any box... then paste it by using the PASTE Icon
    CLEAR all your history, everything ... then close firefox
    Reopen the browser... and the PASTE Icon will light up

    I only had a few addons installed, I disabled Zone Alarm toolbar, View Source Chart 3.01. I also had 5 separate java console updates/addons, and I uninstalled all but the latest java console 6.0.21. All I have now is Roboform 6.9.98, Firebug 1.5.4, Java console 6.0.21, Java quick starter 1.0. So far, so good, the problem has not occurred today. I hope this is it, I will be more sure after a few days problem free. Thanks for the info.

  • How can I migrate from Outlook 2011 to iCal and Apple Address Book in Mavericks now that synching is no longer possible?

    Now that I am on Mavericks and no longer able to sync between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook 2011 on my MacBook Pro, I'm finally taking the leap (which I should have done long ago) and abandoning Outlook 2011 all together (doesn't help that Outlook now prompts me to rebuild by Identity multiple times per day). I am hoping to export from Outlook to iCal, Address Book, etc, but I would love it if someone could check my steps.
    Delete iCal and Apple Address Book content -- Because I have old data in iCal and Address Book (that was synched before I upgraded to Mavericks), I planned to delete this data as follows:
    Manually deleting my multiple calendars in the iCal app
    Go to Go>Home>Library>Calendars and drag "Calendar Cache" to trash
    Go to Go>Home>Library>Caches and drag "com.apple.iCal" and "com.apple.AddressBook" to the trash
    Go to Go>Home>Library>Application Support and drag "Address Book" to the trash
    Export Outlook 2011 Calendars to iCalIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into iCal? I will use this file format to individually export each of my calendars from Outlook 2011 and import them into iCal.
    Export Outlook 2011 Contact List to Apple Address BookIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into Apple Address Book?
    Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi acs4055,
    As per your query I found a relevant solution for resolving this,  actually I haven’t tried the steps you wrote here in your query.  But I found a solid key answer for exporting from Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.1) Outlook 2011 to iCal for Apple mail. This is possible through Drag and Drop method via this you can undoubtedly migrate Outlook 2011 Calendar to ical format.
    Hope it will assist you and you will be able to attain a desired solution.

  • How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?

    How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?
    I used to store my pictures on an external hard drive using the latest version of Aperture. Now I tried migrating my Aperture library to Photos. However, after a short moment an error message popped up telling me that "Photos was unable to make a copy of your library before preparing it. Photos does not have the necessary permissions...".
    My external HDD doesn't need any permission repairs nor is the system prohibited to read from or write to it.
    Thanks for any advice in advance!

    My guess is that the encryption is the problem for the new app.

  • Can't Access Secure (HTTPS) Sites On One Account, FF or Safari???

    Hello Mac Fans
    First let me say I'm new to Mac. On one account I can't access secures sites like I can in the admin account. This may be a function of rights but am not sure? All updates have been done.
    I can't login to this forum, my MobileMe account or my bank for example. I had to change to my other account or gasp, use a PC to post this message.
    I installed FireFox trying to isolate the problem to Safari but that didn't pan out, I can't get to HTTPS pages in FF either.
    I turned off Little Snitch thinking I might have denied something by mistake but that didn't help. I checked the rules and found nothing that wasn't allowed.
    Nothing was changed in the router. I just turned on Mac and it worked. The iMac is connected to the router via ethernet cable.
    I've used the search function and tried a few things that have been recommended for others but they didn't help me. I went to the keychain and did a repair, although it didn't find any problem. I over rode a couple keys to always allow them (Apple site stuff) and I ran the disk utility to no avail.
    For reference I will post the information for both Safari and FF.
    Safari:
    Safari can’t open the page “https://support.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/ACAuthWeb.woa/wa/login?
    appIdKey=2ddbca23a85d20e5bf7478812379ae23&path=/login.jspa%3FsuccessURL%3D/index .jspa” because Safari can’t
    establish a secure connection to the server “support.apple.com”.
    Safari can’t open the page “https://www.mln'sbank.com/” because Safari can’t establish a secure connection to the server
    “www.mln'sbank.com”.
    Safari can’t open the page “https://auth.apple.com/authenticate?service=DockStatus&realm=primary-
    me&returnURL=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5tZS5jb20vd28vV2ViT2JqZWN0cy9Eb2NrU3RhdHVzLndvYS93YS9 0cmFtcG9saW5l&destinationU
    rl=” because Safari can’t establish a secure connection to the server “auth.apple.com”.
    FireFox:
    The connection was interrupted
    The connection to support.apple.com was interrupted while the page was loading.
    * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    I've done a lot of snooping around on this forum and have ran out of ideas so now I must ask for help.
    Thanks

    I think I may have found the problem. It's embarrassing to find it minutes after posting the message yet I tried to solve it off and on for three days! My brother who is a 20 year Mac user has been trying to help me too. I guess it's true what they say... sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. LOL
    I turned off the parental controls. What I don't understand is that the no website restrictions box was checked. To me this means I should be able to go to any site I wanted. Can anyone explain why I couldn't got to a HTTPS page on a parental controlled account even though there were no restrictions placed on it?
    It's late and I need sleep. I'll leave this open for now until I have more time to test it.

  • Can I migrate data from "old" user account to new user after clean install?

    I've just done a clean install of Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro (I erased system drive before install). I've upgraded SL to 10.6.2 using a generic administrator account. And I have an exact bootable clone of my old data (SuperDuper backup on external drive).
    I don't care about migrating all my old software; I'll reinstall it. But I would like to migrate system preferences, mail accounts, iCal calendars, and keychains etc. And some silly part of me wants to REname my username. (Also: I can't use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant because some part of the old image has Microsoft Entourage hooks in Mail and MobileMe that I want to get rid of.)
    So here's my question: if I create a new account with the NEW user name I want to start using, can I STILL then copy over my old data? I don't know which of the below stuff has my old user name embedded in the data. Here's the list:
    Your data in ~/Documents
    ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
    ~/Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder)
    Also in ~/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need)
    ~ /Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
    ~/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist *This is a very important file which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences.
    ~ /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
    ~/Library/Application Support/Safari (copy the whole folder)
    ~/Library/Application Support/iMovie (copy the whole folder)
    ~/Pictures/iPhoto library
    ~/Music/iTunes
    ~/Movies/iMovie
    Thanks for any input! I know a lot of people here have done clean installs, so I appreciate anything you can share.

    what exactly do you mean by that? you can use Migration Assistant to migrate your user only (no applications). that should most likely suffice and i don't think Entourage will be a problem. you'll have to delete various entourage folders in your documents folder afterward if you don't plan on using it anymore.
    So here's my question: if I create a new account with the NEW user name I want to start using, can I STILL then copy over my old data?
    yes, as bdmarsha said, your user name is not mentioned anywhere in your home directory.

  • How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !

    How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !

    If your "older" MBA has a Thunderbolt port then it isn't that old. See Target Disk Mode about how it's used. Note that without a monitor you won't be able to tell from the screen when it has fully started, and if it succeeded in starting in TDM. If it did, then the hard drive should appear on the Desktop of your new computer. You can then access it to transfer your files. You can even use Migration Assistant or any backup utility to transfer data. Just don't try to transfer system files.

  • How can i migrate a single application from my old macbook to my new macbook

    Can I migrate only single applications or files using the migration assistant? how?

    I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
    All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
    Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
    Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.
