To Upgrade Directory Service Control Center 6

To access the Directory Server Enterprise Edition 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) instances using DSCC, you must upgrade DSCC 6 to version 11g Release 1 (11.1.1).

Using DSCC 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), you can access version 6, 7.0, and 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) instances.

If you are upgrading DSCC that was installed using native packages, you must perform the following steps as root.

1. Install Directory Server Enterprise Edition 11g Release 1 (11.1.1).

   For more information, see Chapter 2, Installing Directory Server Enterprise Edition, in Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition.

2. Stop the DSCC 6 registry and export its content.

   The dsee6-install-path specifies the path where Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6 is installed.

   1. Stop the DSCC 6 registry.

      # dsee6-install-path/ds6/bin/dsadm stop /var/opt/SUNWdsee/dscc6/dcc/ads

   2. Record the DSCC 6 registry port numbers.

      # dsee6-install-path/ds6/bin/dsadm info /var/opt/SUNWdsee/dscc6/dcc/ads

   3. Export the DSCC 6 registry content.

      # dsee6-install-path/ds6/bin/dsadm export /var/opt/SUNWdsee/dscc6/dcc/ads \ cn=dscc /tmp/dscc.ldif

      The /tmp/dscc.ldif file contains the server configuration.

3. Create and populate the DSCC 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) registry with the version 6 registry content.

   1. Create the DSCC 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) registry by using the same ports that DSCC 6 registry has used.

      # install-path/bin/dsccsetup ads-create -p port -P secure-port

      The port and secure-port values are the values that are recorded in Step 2b.

   2. Stop the registry.

      # install-path/bin/dsadm stop /var/opt/SUNWdsee7/dcc/ads

   3. Import the /tmp/dscc.ldif file.

      # install-path/bin/dsadm import /var/opt/SUNWdsee7/dcc/ads /tmp/dscc.ldif cn=dscc

   4. Start the registry.

      # install-path/bin/dsadm start /var/opt/SUNWdsee7/dcc/ads

   5. Verify all the registrations of the server.

      # install-path/bin/dsccreg list-servers -p port-number

      All the existing servers are displayed. All the registrations are version 6 registrations.

   6. (Optional) You can see all the Directory Server instances.

      # install-path/bin/dsccmon view-servers -p port-number

      The server instances are shown as version 6 instances.

4. Deploy the DSCC 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) WAR file.

   Refer to Appendix A, Deploying the DSCC WAR File, in Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition.

   If you have upgraded DSCC that was installed by using native packages, you must access DSCC as root.

5. (Optional) Uninstall Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.
