Using the Messaging Server 6.3 64–bit edition installer, install Messaging Server on the same system as your previous version of Messaging Server, but in a different directory (for example, in this procedure, /opt/sun/comms/messaging/). See To Begin Installation.
To migrate the configuration and Message Store data from the previous version of Messaging Server, run the migrate-config (migration configuration) utility:
/opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/migrate-config old-msg-svr-root
For example:
/opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/migrate-config /opt/SUNWmsgsr
Run /opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/patch-config.
Run /opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/install-newconfig.
To back out the migration, run /opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/migrate-config -u /opt/SUNWmsgsr, where -u is the undo flag.
Once you complete the migration, stop using the old server-root directory:
Update their PATH, any scripts referencing the old server-root location.
If you are using Legato Networker, be sure to update the server-root location in the configuration.
Replace the server-root location with the server-root binary location.
Start the new server with the following command:
/opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/start-msg
If you need to back out the migration, use the —u (undo) flag:
/opt/sun/comms/messaging/sbin/migrate-config —u old-base-dir
where old-base-dir is the old server-root directory.
To restart the old Messaging Server, use: old-base-dir/sbin/start-msg
