Sparc to x86 migration passwd file issues?

We're interested in migrating an old Sparc 2.7 system to x86.
Are there going to be any problems just copying the passwd and shadow files to the new system. Migration is easier if I don't have to force a couple thousand users to change passwords all at once.
Tim Myers

It should be fine. If the x86 system will run something other than Solaris 7, make sure that there are not any differences in the entries the system creates.

  • Cert-pwd-file format (migrate local /etc/passwd file to Sun ldap 6.3)

    Hello,
    I am trying to migrate the local /etc/passwd file to the LDAP. I have created the passowrd text file, when I run the command:
    # dsadm stop /local/ds
    # dsadm set-flags /local/ds cert-pwd-prompt=on
    # dsadm start --cert-pwd-file /local/ds/certpassword.txt /local/ds
    I got errors like this:
    /local/ds/certpassword.txt contains newline[s]. Cannot use it as credentials file.
    My certpassword.txt file format: "root:x:0:0:Super-User:/:/sbin/sh"
    What is the best way to mirgrate local accout to the LDAP? Is my password file format correct?
    Thanks a lot for your help!
    Regards,

    You're misinterpreting the usage/purpose of dsadm's cert-pwd-file option.
    Here's two ideas that I think are more along the lines of what you want:

  • Issue while migrating from File to DB based repository for SAP adapter

    Hi
    I recently migrated from file based repository to DB based repository.
    SAP Adapter: DB repository for JCA configuration
    After that I created the new targets and the jca log file showed me correct entry saying that it read from DB repository.

    Hi Manoj
    I checked the web.xml under MW_HOME/Oracle_SOA1/soa/thirdparty/ApplicationAdapters/iwafjca.war/WEB-INF folder. The iway.jndi is set to below :
    <param-name>iway.jndi</param-name>

    I checked the outbound connection settings from Admin console under below path
    Home >Summary of Deployments >iwafjca > configuration
    I can see that the properties IWayRepoURL, IWayRepoUser and IWayRepoPassword are set to blank here. Where exactly are these property values picked from ? Or do I need to manually edit it here in admin console itself?

  • Can I migrate my files and all my notes over to a new PC?

    I have 150 files that I read into Adobe Digital Editions, and I made notes in many of them. I need to preserve my notes. Almost all the files were free downloads (except 2), so I'm not worried about problems associated with Digital Rights Management. If I preserve the directory structure on my new PC (in order to keep the migration as simple as possible), what procedure can I follow to migrate my files and notes over to a new PC?  I trust someone at Adobe has thought about this issue.  Thank you

    I'm not sure this will work, but I think that if you install ADE, and then copy the directory
    C:\Users\<youruser>\Documents\My Digital Editions  from the old computer to the new, you will see all your annotations etc.
    The annotations themselves are in C:\Users\<youruser>\Documents\My Digital Editions\Annotations
    Don't lose anything from the old computer until you are sure it is all working on the new.
    Also, the old one may well be on an older version of ADE (eg 1.7.2), and the new will naturally install ADE2.0.
    I'm not sure if they have changed the format of annotations at all between the two;
    one reader recently reported the loss of many books when updating to V2.0. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1140605?tstart=0
    There are lots of bugs in V2.0, so if you are not yet on it you may do best to keep with the old version.
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
    The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
    You can also run the old version by copying the ?:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Digital Editions directory; no need for an install.
    The only thing you seem to miss from a 'proper' install that way is association of .acsm and .epub files with ADE; which you will have to to manually.

  • Error while migrating repository files from Brio to Interactive reporting

    Hi,
    I am doing migration of Brio from 8.3.1 to Hyperion Interactive Reporting version 11.1.2.1. I am referring http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hs_migration.pdf
    I am facing error when I am migrating resitory files from brio 8 to Interactive reporting version11 environment.
    Error [[ENOENT]] Accessing path: /c2cnas/Oracle/Hyperion_Home/EPMSystem11R1/products/biplus/opencat
    when I checked at my Linux server I do not see "opencat" directory under /c2cnas/Oracle/Hyperion_Home/EPMSystem11R1/products/biplus path. I don't know why this directory or folder was missed after Hyperion Interactive Reporting Installation. Do we need to create this folder manually for newer versions( 11.x)?
    Has anyone aware of this error? will it impact my migration? I am thinking that migration utility is looking to place .oce files in this directory but it could not find. is my understanding correct?
    Please help me on this.

    Usually in 11.1.2.1 the folder will be  "EPMSystem11R1\products\biplus\data\Open Catalog Extensions"
    I haven't seen a opencat folder.
    Can you check the migration logs.Also check permission for the user on the folders.
    Thanks,

    I  have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive  I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is  not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?

    Hello Forum Members,
    I figured it out. You have to select  the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on  "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!

  • Solaris 8 on Sparc and X86

    Will I experience any problems connecting a Trusted Solaris 8 X86 systems to a SPARC Trusted 8 system? Will all the trusted features work between the two.
    Thx

    I am using Java 5.0 to develop applets, but if I use
    all the possibilities that 5.0 version offers (such
    as enum) that means that clients viewing my applet
    must have JRE 5.0 as well. Does that mean a very
    recent browser will be required?no.
    I found which browsers support Java 5.0 on the page
    J2SE 5.0 "Supported System Configurations" at
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/system-configurations.h
    tml
    In short, what I take from there is that browsers
    required would be:
    - Mozilla 1.4+
    - Internet Explorer 5.5 (SP2+), 6.x on Windows
    platforms
    - Netscape 4.7.x on Solaris 8 on SPARC and x86
    - Netscape 7 and 7.1 are not offically supported, but
    should work
    I have no idea how recent these versions are and
    whether it is acceptable to assume that web visitors
    will have these versions. I'd think it is almost safe to assume people have those, they're not that young. the question is rather "do they have the JRE 1.5.0?"

  • Ocrfile is not being written to.  open file issues.  Help please.

    I've been troubleshooting an open file issue on our Test environment for quite a while now. Oracle has had me update to latest CRS bundle for 10.2.0.3, then upgrade to 10.2.0.4, then two more patches via OPatch to bring 10.2.0.4 RAC to it's most recent patch. None of these patches resolved our problem. We have ~8700 datafiles in the database and once the database is started, we're at ~11k on Production but on Test we're at ~37K or higher. It takes 1-2 days to hit the 65536 limit before it crashes. I have to 'bounce' the database to keep it from crashing. Yes, I could raise the ulimit but that isn't solving the problem.
    Over the weekend I noticed that on Production and DEV, the ocrfile is being written to constantly and has a current timestamp but on Test, the ocrfile has not been written to since the last OPatch install. I've checked the crs status via 'cluvfy stage -post crsinst -n all -verbose' and everything comes back as 'passed'. The database is up and running, but the ocrfile is still timestamped at April 14th and open files jump to 37k upon opening the database and continue to grow to the ulimit. Before hitting the limit, I'll have over 5,000 open files for 'hc_<instance>.dat, which is where I've been led down the path of patching Oracle CRS and RDBMS to resolve the 'hc_<instance>.dat bug which was supposed to be resolved in all of the patches I've applied.
    From imon_<instance>.log:
    Health check failed to connect to instance.
    GIM-00090: OS-dependent operation:mmap failed with status: 22
    GIM-00091: OS failure message: Invalid argument
    GIM-00092: OS failure occurred at: sskgmsmr_13
    That info started the patching process but it seems like there's more to it and this is just a result of some other issue. The fact that my ocrfile on Test is not being written to when it updates frequently on Prod and Dev, seems odd.
    We're using OCFS2 as our CFS, updated to most recent version for our kernel (RHEL AS 4 u7 -- 2.6.9-67.0.15.ELsmp for x86_64)
    Any help greatly appreciated.

  • After migrating my files from an HP laptop to my MacBook Pro....

    After migrating my files from an HP to my MacBook, how do I combine the accounts in which my transferred files is under?

    Well that is just it. You should not have more then one account unless you created a second user on the Mac.
    If after the transfer from the HP you ended up with 2 user accounts that is because the system you used to do the transfer created the second user to match the username from the HP. There is no good, or any, way to combine 2 user accounts and if you copy files over the permissions may not get set correctly.
    Migrations assistant strike again.
    You might be better off starting from scratch, Over. IMHO.

  • Sudden MTS File Issues

    I have been editing MTS files (AVCHD) from a Panasonic GH2 (Some hacked some stock firmware) for over 2 years with little to no issues. I am using the CS5.5 Master Collection, Premiere Pro in this case, on a 3 year old Sager laptop (64-bit, i-7 720qm, 8GB RAM, 2 internal HDDs, nVidia GeForce GTX 285M). I am not sure if I am having hardware issues or a corrupt file but something is not right.
    I am now in the middle of a project and all of the sudden my computer is VERY sluggish and it takes minutes before things update (such as scrolling in my timeline to a different frame) and sometimes it just freezes up all together. There is also an issue (could be related) with the second set of spanned clips (detailed below) from this project.
    The timeline is DV 24P widescreen since it is going to DVD and also uses footage shot from a DVX100b for cutaways. The GH2 footage was all shot with stock firmware 1.1 at 24H, all shot on one day and the first recording time was just shy of an hour, then about 20 minutes and then another for about an hour. This produced 3 mts files for the first section, 1 solo file for the short section and 4 files for the last long section.  I copied the whole card to my D drive without altering any of the folder structure like a good boy. I brought in the clips to the project window and had no issues with editing the first hour section. I will say that I did not use the media browser as I have learned recently is the preferred way to import these clips. For the last 2 years I have dragged and dropped using the windows explorer window and have not had any issues until now. I have dealt with spanned clips, a music video hat required over ten video tracks and much higher bit rates so I am not sure what the trigger is for these issues. What is odd about the second longer clip is that when the first clip is dragged in to the timeline( 00004), it only brings that clip, not the others that should be attached. The first section worked but not this one. And all of the files that follow this clip are numbered differently but look identical to (00004) when dragged to the timeline. They all appear normal in explorer (smaller clips that should be spanned together) so the footage is in tact, just not in PP.
    I experimented a little and copied clip 0005 into it's own folder, dragged it in and it then displayed properly (not a copy of 00004). The sluggish issue is still there so I am not ready to just grin and bear it with this workaround. I also experimented by creating a brand new project, copying the original footage from my archive drive (never imported into a timeline so no xmp files) into a new folder and used media browser to bring in the footage. It didn't show clips 00005 and up since the media browser is only supposed to show the first of the spanned clips but it was still only 24 minutes long and obviously not including the rest of the clips. MEdia browser recognizes these clips are supposed to be together, but PP is seeing them all as copies of 00005.
    I will greatly appreciate any opinions but bear in mind that I have used this same workflow on this same system for over 2 years. The only variable is that these spanned clips may be slightly longer than I have used in the past but not by much. I really don't know if there is a peice of hardware malfunctioning, if the clip is somehow corrupt or if I am missing something obvious.
    What coulod cause this sudden change in performance? Would editing with a proxy help? Should I convert this trouble clip to a different format? Am I asking too much of my system? Are there ways to check if my computer is functioning properly?
    Thanks in advance for any insight and for reading this rather lengthy explaination.
    Cole

    I wanted to give a quick update on this MTS file issue. I was able to get my system back to normal by isolating the trouble files in their own folders outside of the "Private" folder(the actual source files, not in the premiere project). I copied the first clip of the group into a folder by itself and the last 3 clips into another folder. I deleted the originals from premiere and imported (dragging and dropping from windows, not using media browser) the isolated files and they worked fine. Obviously they were now 4 independent files that I had to place side by side in the timeline but they lined up and there is no more lag in the system and there are no more duplicate files.
    Far from conventional but it has me editing again and I didn't have to buy a new computer to be back in business. I can only guess that something glitched when it was conforming and it wouldn't recognize the spanned clips.
    A special thanks to Eric at ADK for offering some suggestions that I fortunately didn't have to try.

  • Migrating PC files to new Mac after losing connection

    I'm using Migration Assistant to move my files from my old PC to my new MacBook Air. I set everything up, connected the two computers with an Ethernet cable, and started the transfer. About two hours (out of a predicted 9) into the transfer, I lost my internet connection. I paused the migration. Then I quit to begin again.
    Since restarting I've tried everything, but I cannot get the Mac to find the PC code. It's connected, but it will not pull up that code that is supposed to show on both computers before you hit continue. It pulled up the first time, I chose the files I wanted to move, and off we went. I've rebooted both. Uninstalled the Migration Assistant from the PC and rebooted. I've repeated all of this numerous times. Nothing works.
    How do I migrate the files from my PC to my Mac when it's the second attempt after the first was interrupted? What is the secret trick?

    Thanks, Tuttle, for the lead. I wrote to Andreas (author of Eudora Mailbox Cleaner) and he explained what happened. Eudora doesn't store an attachment with the e-mail message--it creates a link to the attachment. The link is hardware dependent, so if you move the Eudora folder, the links get broken. He said there was really no way to reconnect the links. Since I have all the messages, and all the attachments, I can still manually find an attachment to a message if I really need it. This is a major flaw with Eudora in my book (too bad, because I like the other features of the program).

    Oracle 11g - External Table/Remote File Issue?
    =============================
    I hope this is the right forum for this issue, if not let me, where to go.
    We are using Oracle 11g (11.2.0.1.0) on (Platform : solaris[tm] oe (64-bit)), Sql Developer 3.0.04
    We are not allowed to put files on the CSV file system (Server A), where DB instance is running. We are able place CSV files on another server(Server B), where DB instance is not running.
    We are trying to use oracle external table to load text files in .CSV format.
    How do we create a Directory (Create Directory) on Server A DB to point to File system of Server B?
    Is it feasible?
    Any idea?
    Thanks in helping.

    The Solaris DBA should be able to mount the filesystem for you. Either that or you have to get creative transferring the file like this;
