When upgrading a PATHWORKS LAN Manager server as a backup domain controller in a domain where the primary domain controller is in a different TCP/IP subnet, you must ensure that the primary domain controller's address is in the LMHOST file on the PATHWORKS LAN Manager server. If this is the first time you activate the use of LMHOST, you must restart the file server.
If your domain configuration spans a wide area network, you must configure your servers running TCP/IP.
If you already installed the PATHWORKS Advanced Server server and it is running an upgrade as part of this installation, in addition to using the LMHOST file, you can choose to use WINS to locate the primary domain controller. Refer to the section on the PATHWORKS Configuration Manager in the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Advanced Server) Server Administrator's Guide for further details on how to configure the WINS server on the network. |
Start the Upgrade utility, as follows:
$ SET DEFAULT SYS$UPDATE |
$ @PWRK$V6UPGRADE |
Will this server be upgraded as a BDC? [no] |

Refer to Appendix B, Resolving Log File Error Messages, in this guide, for more information about how to edit User reports.
The User report is used as input to the Group report; therefore, you must edit the User report before you create the Group report. |
If you are upgrading a BDC into an existing domain that already has a PDC, or if you are upgrading a standalone server to a BDC, all users in the User report and groups in the Group report will be merged into the PDCs user/group database. If there are users or groups you do not want to merge into the PDC, comment them out of the Upgrade report.
