7.7 How to Roll Back to PATHWORKS LAN Manager
PATHWORKS Advanced Server provides a Roll Back procedure that allows you to restore the PATHWORKS LAN Manager server environment if the server was not upgraded properly. The VMSINSTAL procedure allows you to specify a location to store the saveset that the Roll Back procedure will create. Refer to the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS Server Installation and Configuration Guide for information on the VMSINSTAL procedure.
When the Roll Back procedure is activated, it de-installs PATHWORKS Advanced Server and restores the PATHWORKS LAN Manager environment and information as it was preserved when PATHWORKS Advanced Server was installed.
After installing PATHWORKS Advanced Server, use the following procedure to roll back to PATHWORKS LAN Manager:
$ @SYS$UPDATE:PWRK$ROLLBACK.COM |

The following table shows examples of error messages you may see in the Upgrade utility log file.
Message | Description | Action |
---|---|---|
V6 upgrade initialization failed | An attempt to upgrade a standalone server failed. | The Upgrade utility does not support upgrading a standalone server as a PDC. Exit the utility and promote the server to either a PDC or BDC, as described in Chapter 3, Changing Server Roles and Domain Names, in this guide. |
Bad network path | The BDC server failed to connect to the PDC. | Make sure the PDC is running, the domain and server name are correct, and transports are running. |
Access denied | System account password is incorrect or account does not have required privileges. | Check system account password and privileges. |
Computer name invalid | Incorrect PDC name entered. | Enter correct name using the Upgrade utility (see Enter PDC Information screen). |
User already upgraded | User was upgraded previously. | Ignore this message. |
Group already exists | The group was upgraded previously. | Ignore this message. |
File currently locked by another user | If a file is open, the security ACLs on the file may not be upgraded to PATHWORKS Advanced Server permissions | None. The PATHWORKS Advanced server can be configured to dynamically upgrade file security when the file is accessed for the first time. |
This section describes how to resolve errors in Upgrade reports. You can also edit the Upgrade reports from the DCL ($) prompt in the following files:

This section includes the following topics:
To resolve errors in the User Report, edit the report as described in Section 5.5.6.1, Create and Edit the User Report, in this guide. The following table provides an example of how to edit the User Report.
If... | Then... | Example |

To prevent the upgrade of JONES and SMITH, edit the appropriate section
of the report so that it looks like this:
\JONES \SMITH |
When merging into a new domain: A user name on the local server has a match on the PDC, but the accounts are not for the same user | Rename the user account name in the user group. To do this, type = newname after the existing name in the appropriate section of the report. |
Joe Smart has an account on the local server with a username of SMART.
However, the account on the PDC is for another user named SMART.
To make sure the upgrade procedure creates a new account JSMART on the PDC, provide a new name for the SMART account in the User Report on the local server. For example: SMART = JSMART |

Rename the group in the upgrade report so that it has the same name as
the group on the PDC. To do this, change the line in the group report
to rename the group as follows:
Group name = newname. |
To merge the members of the group SQE containing users SMITH and JONES
on the local server, with the members of the group WRITERS containing
users BROWN and WHITE on the PDC, rename the group SQE in the Group
Report as follows:
SQE = WRITERS { Smith Jones } |
To resolve errors in the Shares report, edit the report as described in Section 5.5.6.3, Create and Edit the Share Report, in this guide. The following table provides an example of how to edit the Shares report.
