NetWare 5.1 SP8. Upgrade to eDirectory 8.6.2 or later
NetWare 6.0 SP5. Upgrade to eDirectory 8.6.2 or later
NetWare 6.5 SP7 or later and eDirectory 8.8.x or later

OES 2 SP2 Linux on 32-bit or 64-bit
OES 2 SP3 Linux on 32-bit or 64-bit
Platform Support for the Target Server:
OES 2 SP3 Linux on 32-bit or 64-bit
Time Synchronization:
The source and target servers must be using the same time synchronization method. For more information on time synchronization, see Time Services
in the OES 2 SP3: Planning and Implementation Guide.
The source server is a NetWare server or OES 1 or OES 2 server that contains the files, volumes, and eDirectory objects to be copied to the target server.
The source server must be running supported versions of NetWare, OES 1 or OES 2, and eDirectory.
Update the source server with the latest NetWare Support Pack.
Ensure that the user performing the migration has read/write/access rights on the source server.
The OES 2 SP3 Linux target server must be installed and updated with the latest patches. For instructions on updating an OES 2 SP3 Linux server, see Updating (Patching) an OES 2 SP3 Server
in the OES 2 SP3: Installation Guide.
Ensure that the user performing the migration has read/write/access rights on the target server.
