Description

How to migrate MPX to SDX as both have different hardware profiles.
 


Instructions

  • Configure the Network Configuration, like configuring interfaces, VLAN etc, on SDX Instance Manually
  • Certain files (mentioned below) from both the NetScaler appliances, out of which all might not be used for migration but we can keep them as a backup in case needed:
/nsconfig/

· ns.conf
· ZebOS.conf
· rc.netscaler
· snmpd.conf
· nsbefore.sh
· nsafter.sh
· inetd.conf
· ntp.conf
· syslog.conf
· newsyslog.conf
· crontab
· host.conf
· hosts
· ttys
· sshd_config
· httpd.conf
· monitrc
· rc.conf
· ssh_config
· localtime
· issue
· issue.net
/var/

· download/*
· log/wicmd.log
· wi/tomcat/webapps/*
· wi/tomcat/logs/*
· wi/tomcat/conf/catalina/localhost/*
· nslw.bin/etc/krb.conf
· nslw.bin/etc/krb.keytab
· netscaler/locdb/*
· lib/likewise/db/*
· vpn/bookmark/*
· netscaler/crl
· nstemplates/*
· learnt_data/*
/netscaler/

· custom.html
· vsr.htm
/nsconfig/

· ssl/*
· license/*
· fips/*
/var/

· netscaler/ssl/*
· wi/java_home/jre/lib/security/cacerts/*
· wi/java_home/lib/security/cacerts/*
  • Migrate the SSL folder into a new instance, to copy the certs and then instead of copying the ns.conf file to a new instance, run the commands by copying them from old ns.conf files, as the former method does sometimes give an error.
