Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter introduces the migration stages. In order to help organize the activities involved in the migration process, a six-stage migration process is defined as follows: 1. Education 2. Analysis and planning 3. Preparation 4. Installation 5. Compatability Mode (CM) operation 6. Native Mode (NM) operation These stages should be used as a guideline for migration. Stages can, and often will, overlap or be skipped altogether. Figure 1-1 summarizes the migration project stages.Figure 1-1. Migration Project Stages Hewlett-Packard has provided solutions to ease the migration process at each stage: use the Migration Toolset during the analysis/planning stage, the Directory Migration Tool (DIRMIG) to migrate the operating environment during the installation stage, and the Switch Assist Tool (SWAT) to create mixed-mode applications during the migration to NM. You will find other migration documents and tools listed in Chapter 2.
