As SMS does not store any data on the server apart from its configuration files. You install SMS components to bring up SMS services on the migrated server. If you are migrating an existing NetWare server to Linux, remember the following:
SMS must be selected as part of OES installation of the new server. This ensures that all relevant software components are installed.
Configuration files are not migrated and adapted to the OES 2 Linux environment. Any configuration updates must be done using iManager. For information, see Section 3.4, Configuring SMDR and Section 3.5, Configuring the Target Service Agent for File System.
