Thank you for replying to me, Florence.
I'm aware that the recommneded method of migrating is: RHEL 7 > 8 > 9.
However, I would like to do RHEL 7 > 9. I have tried this is a small test
lab and it seems to be somewhat, OK. As I'm only interested in Users/Group.
As additoinal information; We will use the same Domain Name for the new
instance aswell, though we do not want to install this as a replica part of
existing old one.
Are there anything else we should look out for or be aware of? E.g Client
already enrolled in Old Ipa instance?
If the ipa migrate-ds method is used, users and groups will be copied to
the new server but not the hosts. Any enrolled client will remain enrolled
to the old server, and will be completely unaware of the new server. If you
want to enroll the existing clients to the new server, you will have to
un-enroll them from the old one (ipa-client-install --uninstall), then
enroll to the new one (ipa-client-install ...).
The ipa migrate-ds command also needs to be provided with parameters to
ignore the SID attribute (*--user-ignore-objectclass **ipantuserattrs
--user-ignore-attribute ipaNTSecurityIdentifier --group-ignore-objectclass
ipantuserattrs --group-ignore-attribute ipaNTSecurityIdentifier* should do
the trick).
HTH,
