Greetings, all; We have an older (and ailing) Dell PowerEdge 6300 running RH 9.0 and overloaded with a ton of (no-longer-sold and barely supported) Telemation phone system software. This machine is currently part of our network.
We just bought a new Dell PowerEdge 860 and it came installed with RHEL 4.0. This box connects to the internet dynamically and they would like us to migrate the whole can of worms from the old box to the new one and then fix stuff, if necessary, afterward. It has been explained at least a dozen times to them that the process is not as simple as what they call "copying" or "mapping" directories to the new machine; there are site-specific scripts and files all over the old box written by several people over the years who have since left and never documented anything that they did (never enforced by same management that is on us like white on rice now to get this thing done.) I was wondering if anyone else here has faced this sort of situation before and how they dealt with it. Dave Hardy Old VMS guy
