Migrating from SCO OpenServer™ 5.0.5 to UnixWare® 7.1 Using Compaq SmartStart v4.23 3
0413-0799-A
Overview
Although SCO will continue to support users running OpenServer 5.0.5 on Compaq servers, there
are many reasons for migrating to UnixWare 7.1, including new 64-bit technologies, emerging
clustering technologies, superb manageability, and improved scalability.
In this Integrating Note, we list these exciting features that are optimized on Compaq servers,
then focus on preparing for the migration––to include checking hardware and software
requirements, locating the latest OS patches and supplements, and backing up your OpenServer
5.0.5 system. Next, we present a detailed installation scenario using the Compaq integration tool:
SmartStart for Servers. Lastly, we show you how to restore your files/filesystems and how to
create emergency recovery backup media.
New Features and Enhancements of
UnixWare 7.1
UnixWare 7.1 enhances Compaq’s availability to provide the significant business advantage of
our enterprise-class, Intel processor-based servers to UNIX customers across a broader spectrum
of industries and applications. Here are only a few of the impressive UnixWare 7.1 features that
come alive on Compaq servers:
•An evolutionary path for SCO OpenServer Release 5.0.5 customers to state-of-the-art
networking computing technologies, 64-bit technologies, and emerging clustering
technologies
•Compatibility of many OpenServer 5.0.5 applications that can run on UnixWare 7.1 with
little or no modification
•Automatic detection of Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) network cards; graphic cards;
and plug-and-play Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) cards
•Scalable Message Store with support for local, remote, and mobile mail services
•Increased memory and storage capacity when combined with Compaq world-class servers:
•Up to 64 GB of memory
•1 TB file/filesystems and disk partitions
•Up to 76,800 TB of storage
•Up to 32 CPUs supported
•Support for I20 mass storage devices
•Support for PCI Hot Plug
•Extensive modem support (1000+) and automatic detection of modems
•Improved scalability so that systems, large and small, will squeeze out every last ounce of
performance from the powerful Symmetrical Multi-Processing (SMP) kernel with high-
availability extensions, such as RAID.
•Fully integrated networking capabilities including web browsing, web serving, Java
development and runtime capabilities, and support for today’s high-speed networking

hardware technologies (ISDN and LDAP and PPP protocols) that are building the backbone
of business-critical networks
•The Webtop that instantly web-enables existing applications; users and administrators no
longer have to learn how to access remote systems, run emulators, or launch access
applications on the server
•Advanced Filesystem Management that centralizes tape backups and restores with the
ARCserveâOpenLite product from Cheyenne; also offers concatenation and disk spanning
•Year 2000 ready, EURO support, and UNIX95 compliant.

http://www.sco.com/unixware.
Pre-installation Tasks
To ensure a smooth transition from your SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 operating system to UnixWare
7.1, you need to prepare a comprehensive migration plan. This will avoid confusion and
frustration, insufficient hardware capabilities, data loss, and installation delays. At a minimum, a
migration plan should include these pre-installation tasks:
? Check minimal hardware requirements.
? Check minimal software requirements.
? Obtain your UnixWare 7.1 license.
? Check for the latest drivers and utilities.
? Create EFS diskettes.
? Check for the latest OS patches and supplements.
? Backup your current system.
?
? ?
? Check Minimal Hardware Requirements
Confirm that your hardware supports this upgrade. Table 1 lists the basic system requirements
and the SCO-preferred requirements for UnixWare 7.1.
Table 1. UnixWare 7.1 minimal and preferred requirements
Minimal Requirement SCO-preferred Requirement
32 MB of memory 64 MB of memory
1-GB hard drive 4-GB hard drive
Graphics-800 X 600 VGA Graphics-800 X 600 VGA
A basic rule of thumb for RAM is a minimum of 32 MB for a graphical interface with an
additional 4 MB for each concurrent user. For our migration scenario, we have five users so our
minimum RAM requirement would be 52 MB (5 users x 4 MB) + 32 MB).
Be sure to also plan for enough swap space. Look at Table 2 for the SCO-recommended swap
space.

System Size Swap Space
32 MB 52 MB
64 MB 75 MB
256 MB 200 MB
1026 MB 430 MB
4096 MB 1330 MB
SCO offers several avenues for checking updated specific system requirements for processor,
memory, and disk space; as well as checking compatibility requirements for adapters, controllers,
drive arrays, and other devices. For a more detailed listing, see the UnixWare 7.1 Installation
Guide (included with your UnixWare 7.1 software) or visit the SCO-compatible hardware
website: http://wbd1.sco.com/chwp/owa/hch_search_corp.action. Also see Appendix A.
Since Compaq and SCO work closely to develop compatible software and hardware products,
you can be sure that each new SCO operating system release has been thoroughly tested on
Compaq equipment. This joint testing ultimately results in optimal hardware/software
compatibility. In fact, nearly all Compaq servers have earned the title of SCO Certified for
UnixWare 7.1 and 7.0.1. See Table 3 for a list of SCO-certified Compaq servers that support
UnixWare 7.1 and 7.0.1.

? Backup Your Current System
To migrate from SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 to UnixWare 7.1, backup your data and hardware
configurations to (1) a removable media––such as cartridge tape—or to (2) a file that can be
transferred over the network or to (3) another system on the network.
Then record your current configuration settings on a blank diskette.
=
= =
= Backup your data into a filesystem-independent format
The VERITAS File System (VxFS) is the default filesystem in UnixWare 7.1 and
supports files/filesystems up to 1 TB. S5, Unified Filesystem (ufs), and Security
Filesystem (sfs) are also approved file formats. SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 file formats
include the High-Throughput Filesystem (HTFS), Desktop Filesystem (DTFS), Acer Fast
Filesystem (AFS), Extended Acxer Fast Filesystem (EAFS), and S5.

Migrating from SCO OpenServer™ 5.0.5 to UnixWare® 7.1 Using Compaq SmartStart v4.23 11
0413-0799-A
Note: S5 is the only Unix Filesystem from OpenServer 5.0.5 supported in UnixWare
7.1.
Table 6 lists the SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 data and configuration files you will need to
archive.
For some data, such as password files and Domain Name Services (DNS) files, the files
will work as they did with SCO OpenServer 5.0.5. Other data, such as MMDF mail
configuration and printer configuration scripts will not work on UnixWare 7.1. These
must be re-written. Visit the SCO website http://www.sco.com/upgrade/uw7doc for more
information.

Note: For porting software applications to your new system, contact the appropriate
vendor for instructions.
There are several methods for archiving and restoring data on your UnixWare 7.1 system.
•ARCserve IT v6.6 from Computer Associates –– a comprehensive, easy-to-use
product for archiving and restoring.
•Emergency Recovery Backup Method –– SCO commands (emergency disk and
emergency rec) that create bootable diskettes and tape (s) to archive the primary
hard disk.
•Other SCO commands –– ufsdump and ufsrestore for archiving ufs systems; cpio,
tar, and volcopy for archiving and restoring UnixWare systems; cpio is especially
suitable for transferring files between different types of UNIX systems.
For this Integration Note, we will use the last two methods.
Data Backup Procedure
1. Change directories to the top level of the data you want to migrate, using the
command
cd /<directory path>.
2. Enter one of the following three cpio commands:
•To archive to cartridge tape, use the command
find . -depth -print -follow | cpio -ocvdB -O /dev/rct0

0413-0799-A
Note: If your archive spans multiple tapes, you may also need to specify the block and
volume sizes. See the SCO manual page for cpio for more information.
•To archive to a file which can be transferred over the network, use the command
find . -depth -print -follow | cpio -ocvd > /tmp/name.cpio.
(name identifies cpio archive)
•To copy your files to another system on your network, use ftp or another file
transfer program. You can then copy these files to your UnixWare 7.1 system
after it is installed.
User Profile Backup Procedure
•Copy user profile (profile.acct ) to your hard drive using the command
ap -d –v usernames > profile.acct
•Copy file to the blank User Account diskette using the command
tar cv profile.acct

you know the following: (1) domain name, (2) which server is the master, (3) which
server is the slave, (4) which computers are clients, and (5) what files reside on each.
Installation Scenario Using Compaq
SmartStart
You can choose either of the following methods to install your UnixWare 7.1 System.
•Automatic installation using the Compaq SmartStart for Servers integration tool
•Manual installation using only the printed SCO UnixWare 7.1 Installation Guide available
with the Installation CD
Note: The custom utility used in SCO OpenSever for installation of software is not available on
UnixWare 7.1.
This Integration Note details the migration process using SmartStart for Servers (Assisted
Integration) that assists you in the setup, configuration, and installation of your UnixWare 7.1
system. More specifically, the major benefits of SmartStart include the following:
•Auto-detects and configures the Compaq server hardware and options
•Ensures installation of the correct Compaq drivers
•Provides a SmartStart Interview that highlights and enables configuration of powerful
Compaq server features, such as Automatic Server Recovery (ASR)
A Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD ships with each Compaq server. As each version
of SmartStart is released, it supports the current version of SCO UnixWare. It also knows how to
handle any previous version. If you obtain a later release of a SCO OS, you probably need to get
a newer version of SmartStart.
Table 7 lists the available software packages on the SmartStart CD that pertain to a SCO UNIX
installation and operation.

Basic Installation Steps
As we have already stated, Compaq highly recommends that you backup your server BEFORE
you upgrade to UnixWare 7.1. Afterward, you can then proceed with the following basic
installation steps. And although you should be able to easily follow the detailed SCO Installation
Guide, every migration entails a few incompatibilities, workarounds, or special considerations.
For that reason, we will highlight and expound upon some of the more critical steps.
Step 1: Enter command for SmartStart workaround.
IMPORTANT: Currently, SmartStart v4.23 will not boot on an OpenServer 5.0.5
system that had been installed using SmartStart for Servers. Use the following temporary
workaround. Sign in as root and run the command #/usr/user/local/compaq/bin/eisaCfg
–w CQTBOOTIN 0. This problem should be fixed in SmartStart 4.40.
Step 2: Physically install additional RAM and/or hardware devices.
Power down your server. Then physically install additional RAM, expansion boards, hard
drives, and other devices that you will need on your new UnixWare 7.1 system. Check
the SCO website at www.SCO.com for compatible hardware. Then power on your server.

Step 3: Insert your SmartStart and Support Software CD.
Step 4: Insert your Compaq Server Profile diskette.
This is a new feature of SmartStart and ships with your SmartStart CD v4.23.
Step 5: Update firmware (ROMPaqs).
You can easily update the onboard firmware (operating program in ROM) in your
Compaq server and for most Compaq options. This is done by flashing the ROM, using
the special Compaq utilities––System ROMPaq and Option ROMPaq–– listed in Table 7.
These utilities replace the existing contents of the ROM with an updated version stored
on the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD.
To obtain even more recent System and Option utilities, you might have to download the
SoftPaqs from the Compaq website
www.compaq.com/support/files/server/Rompaq/index.html and follow the instructions
that accompany the SoftPaqs.
Step 6: Run the Compaq Erase Utility.
Step 7: Cycle power.
Step 8: Select UnixWare 7.1 as your OS.
SmartStart will prompt you to select a language, to set the date and time, to agree to the
licensing agreement, and to choose a SmartStart path: Manual or Assisted Integration.
(This Integration Note describes the Assisted Installation procedure).
Step 9: Configure your system and create System Partition.
With SmartStart, the Compaq System Configuration Utility starts automatically. You
should review your current system configuration (see Appendix B) at this time to ensure
that no hardware configuration conflicts exist. SmartStart will also automatically create
your System Partition.
Of prime importance, you should check if the SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 controller order,
Host Bus Adapter (HBA) number, device interrupts, and SCSI IDs match the ones
needed for UnixWare 7.1.
System Configuration Procedures
•Select Review and Modify Your System.
•Select Hardware.
•Select View and Edit Details.
•Change the current configuration information to match the configuration from your
OpenServer 5.0.5 system: (1) controller order, (2) Host Bus Adapter numbers, (3)
device interrupts, and (4) SCSI IDs. See Appendix B.
•Save your configuration and restart your server.

System Partition Tips
SmartStart automatically creates your System Partition at this time. The partition is
approximately 40 MB. You can use the rest of the disk to install UnixWare 7.1 or you
can partition your disk (up to four). See the SCO UnixWare 7.1 Installation Guide for
more details.
A word of caution: Creating a boot partition will remove all data on the
hard disk. Do not remove or reconfigure the System (boot) partition from
this point on because it now contains information specific to your current
hardware setup. Compaq utilities also use the system partition for
diagnostics.
Note: Storing your Compaq utilities in the System Partition also eliminates the need to
store and track diskettes.
See the Integration Note: Compaq and SCO UnixWare 7 Frequently Asked Questions
(Document #ECG030/0698) on the Compaq website, www.compaq.com, for more
detailed information.
Note: You can now run Compaq System Configuration Utility during startup from the
System Partition by pressing F10.
Step 10: SmartStart automatically runs the Array Configuration Utility (if
you have arrays).
Step 11: Select additional software.
At this time, SmartStart lists several optional software packages, which optimize server
management and performance, as well as their setup procedures. You may defer the
software installation to a later time.
Options include
•Configuration of Automatic Server Recovery (ASR)
•Selection of Network Media Connection. (Default is 10/100 Base-T connector)
•Setup of IRC
•Installation of Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manager is automatically selected. See the “Migration Tips” in this
section. At the prompt insert the Compaq Management CD so that SmartStart can
check the version number
Save your configuration and restart your server.
Migration Tips
•Insight Manager monitors performance on your Compaq server including HBAs,
disks, NICs, system boards, and cooling fans. Currently, you can only run Insight
Manager on a Microsoft Windows 95, 98, or NT system. If you do not wish to install
this management tool at this time, you must de-select this option.
Your utilities run faster
when executed from the
System Partition.

•If you wish to configure identical systems on other servers, save a copy of your
system configuration to your Server Profile (Replication) diskette and port the
diskette to your other designated servers.
You are now ready to start the Start SmartStart Interview.
Step 12: Check your UnixWare 7.1 Installation CD.
SmartStart automatically starts the Interview process (installation guide) and checks the
version information of your SCO UnixWare 7.1 CD. Follow these procedures:
1. Remove the SmartStart CD.
2. Insert the UnixWare 7.1 Installation CD.
3. After SmartStart checks the UnixWare CD, remove the OS CD.
4. Insert the SmartStart CD.
Note: Your UnixWare 7.1 does require newer drivers than those provided on your SCO
media, so SmartStart will prompt you to create a new Host Bus Adapter (HBA) diskette
for use during the install.
Step 13: Create new EFS diskettes (including an HBA diskette).
Once the OS version is verified, the Interview process may resume. SmartStart now
prompts you to create four EFS diskettes, including the Host Bus Adapter (HBA)
diskette.
The EFS is a collection of device drivers that provide maximum performance with
Compaq hardware. It also includes several utilities to monitor and increase the
performance of your Compaq server. Refer back to section “Create EFS diskettes” to see
if you need to proceed with this step.
If so, follow these procedures:
1. Insert SmartStart CD.
2. Select Create EFS diskettes.
3. Select Create a Compaq Host Bus Adapter diskette.
4. Insert a DOS-formatted diskette and create the Compaq Host Bus Adapter diskette.
5. Insert a DOS-formatted diskette and create the Compaq EFS #1 diskette.
6. Insert a DOS-formatted diskette and create the Compaq EFS #2 diskette.
7. Insert a DOS-formatted diskette and create the Compaq Documentation diskette.
Migration Tips
The HBA diskette contains up-to-date drivers and support software needed to run SCO
UNIX Ware 7.1 on your particular server.
Traditionally, the term HBA only referred to SCSI Host Bus Adapters. In UnixWare,
every disk controller is now referred to as an HBA, even if it’s non-SCSI.

Step 14: Remove SmartStart CD when prompted.
Step 15: Insert the UnixWare 7.1 [boot] diskettes and restart your server.
Insert the UnixWare 7.1 [boot] Diskette #1. Keep your license and activation keys close.
You will need the license number, code, and other data. Remove diskette.
Insert the UnixWare 7.1 [boot] Diskette #2. UnixWare 7.1 Documentation and Manual
Pages (SCO Online Help) are automatically installed at this time. Remove diskette.
Insert the UnixWare 7.1 Installation CD and continue with the installation.
Step 16: Insert additional UnixWare 7.1 CDs and the HBA diskette, when
prompted.
•Insert the UnixWare 7.1 Operating System Updates CD for more layered products.
•Remove the UnixWare 7.1 Operating System Updates CD.
•Insert the UnixWare 7.1 Installation CD.
•Install the latest copy of the HBA.
•Remove the UnixWare 7.1 Installation CD.
•Insert the UnixWare 7.1 Optional Services CD for Internet services, such as
Netscape; Windows connections; ARCserve IT; and other services.
•Remove the UnixWare 7.1 Optional Services CD.
Step 17: Remove the EFS from the System Partition.
SmartStart automatically installs the Compaq EFS v7.25 for SCO UnixWare 7.1 during
the installation process. However, since updates to the drivers and utilities may occur
more frequently than a new OS release or an EFS release, you might need to install a
newer EFS version than the one on your SmartStart CD. See section “Check for the latest
drivers and utilities.”
If you wish to install a newer version of the EFS, you must first remove the old drivers
and utilities. This rule also applies to updating only a particular driver or utility in the
future. Removing the EFS also ensures the integrity of the OS patches and supplements.
For this Integration Note, we will delete the old EFS. Check for the following drivers,
utilities, and documentation among the installed packages.
•cpqdoc - Compaq EFS documentation package
•cpqhpcd - Compaq PCI Hot Plug Driver update
•ptf7012 - UnixWare 7 SNMP ptf (i386)b
•ptfcasa - Compaq Attached Storage Array Driver
•ptfcasau - Compaq Fibre Channel Diagnostic Utility
•ptfcnet - Compaq Cnet Network Driver
•ptfcpqasr - Compaq Advanced Server Recovery

•ptfidamnu - Compaq IDA Diagnostic Utility.
•ptfn1000 - Compaq Gigabit NIC/Module Driver.
•ptfn100c - Compaq Ethernet or Fast Ethernet NIC driver.
•ptfssd - Compaq Standby Server Daemon Utility.
If installed, remove the appropriate packages.
Step 18: Insert the Compaq Management CD when prompted.
SmartStart loads Insight Manager and the Insight Management Agents.
Step 19: Install any relevant OS patches and supplements.
You need to install several other patches and supplements that were initiated after
SmartStart v4.23. See the section “Check for the Latest OS Patches and Supplements.”
To install a patch or supplement, follow the installation instructions given in the cover
letter or documentation file.
Step 20: Install new EFS.
Use the latest version of the EFS created in section “Create EFS Diskettes” or in Step 13.
Continue with your installation.
