1. Log in to DSR 8.6.x Active NOAM GUI using VIP.
2. Export the network element configurations.
   1. Navigate to Configuration from Main Menu, then select Networking and click Networks.
   2. Select the required NOAM Network Element for configuration.
   3. Click Export and save the configuration.
3. Log in to NOAM vDSR 9.0.X GUI using XMI IP.

   2. Navigate to Configuration from Main Menu, then select Servers.
   3. Click Insert.
   4. On Insert page, update the following server details:
      • Enter the standby NOAM hostname
      • Role as Network OAM&P
      • Hardware Profile as DSR Guest
      • Select the Noam Network element name
      • Configure XMI and IMI IP's and NTP server IP
   5. Click Ok.
6. Export and run TKLCConfigData.sh file on vDSR 9.0.1 NOAM.
   1. Log in to NOAM vDSR 9.0.X GUI using XMI IP.
   2. Navigate to Configuration from Main Menu, then select Servers.
   3. Select the required NOAM server.
   4. Click Export, to export server configuration file to the file management folder on the NOAM.
   5. Perform ssh to XMI IP of the DSR 9.0.X VM.
   6. Run the cd $FILE_MGMT_AREA/ command to access the file management area.
   7. Copy the TKLCConfigData.sh file to /var/tmp folder, by running the following command:

      cp TKLCConfigData.<hostname>.sh /var/tmp/TKLCConfigData.sh

   8. Verify the /var/TKLC/appw/logs/Process/install.log log file for successfully running the TKLCCOnfigData.sh file. You can run the following command to check logs.

      sudo tail -f /var/TKLC/appw/logs/Process/install.log

      Output:

      + sed -i s/WALLET_KEY_TO_BE_REPLACED_DURING_SERVER_EXPORT/bc332acff044aa6bcc7871c0742b0b89abd658efc23549acc70d857279a1ee3bb31e04f2e85fcc50fe2fad0c6aa69d3596ecb68f84983b44d7805d98a994ad96/g /usr/TKLC/appworks/prod/maint/loaders/install/postInstall/load.AppworksSecConfig

   9. Use the following command to update the /etc/resolv.conf file:

      sudo vim /etc/resolv.conf

   10. Add IMI IP of the Active NOAM at the end of file. Select Save and then Close.
       Sample /etc/resolv.conf file:

       [admusr@901noam00 ~]$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
       domain platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com
       nameserver 127.0.0.1
       nameserver 192.168.0.20     ; IMI IP of NOAM

7. Copy the /var/named/db.platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com from Active NOAM to vDSR 9.0.X NOAM, by running the following commands on DSR 9.0.X VM.

   cd $FILE_MGMT_AREA/

   sudo ssh admusr@<XMI ip of DSR 8.6.X> "sudo cat /var/named/db.platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com " > db.platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com

   sudo mv db.platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com /var/named/

   sudo chown root:named /var/named/db.platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com

   sudo chmod 640 /var/named/db.platform.cgbu.us.oracle.com

8. Wait for 10 minutes for server to configure the IP configuration, then reboot the VM using sudo init 6 command on CLI.
