Replacing primary Netware 4.11 Server

There are many solutions:

1 Use Ghost or other cloning software to create the image on the new server.
2 Boot the new server (Disconnected from the network)
3 In the new server, change the Storage and Network drivers and set the same network addresses.
4 Run a file system check in the new server to verify consistence (VRepair).
5 Remove (disconnect) the old server and connect the new one.
6 Run a DSRepair of the Tree to check consistence.

The problem with this solutions is that yourvolumes and boot partitions remains the same size of the old server. But you can use install to increase the size of the volumes (although not the boot partition)

Iy you can't use an imaging software then you could use the mirror featuring of theserver to mirror the netware partitions in the new server's hard disk (Don't forget to create the DOS partition and copy the nwserver directory to the new disk before create the mirror. You should make the dos partition bootable too)
After established the mirror, break it and put the new disk in the new server.
After that, you can use the procedure previously
defined.

The best solution depends of your actual and desired configuration.

Hope this helps

Excuse my english

Look at this TID: "4.1 to 4.11 migration with hardware upgrade - TID2920338" from Novell's support site.

I've used this procedure a number of times and it works great. The plus is you don't need to purchase any new software (I assume that youalready have something to back up and restore files on the server), and the old server is still available if you need a backout option.

The only thing that you have to do after the DS move is restore files. (When you back up the files, make surethat you backup trustees and then restore with those trustee rights).
