#2442 Automating migration
Closed: migrated by dmoluguw. Opened by edewata.

Currently migration is done using the "existing CA" installation with some additional manual tasks:

  • http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Migrating_a_CA_using_existing_CA_mechanism
  • http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Migrating_a_CA_with_HSM_using_existing_CA_mechanism

Basically, after the "existing CA" installation there are some migration-specific tasks that need to be done including (and not limited to):

  • removing the new CA certificate record
  • fixing LDAP schema in exported LDIF file
  • importing the LDIF file
  • removing the old security domain entry
  • running pki-server subsystem-cert-update

To simplify the migration process, a new pkispawn parameter (e.g. pki_migration) could be added to be used instead of the pki_existing parameter. When this parameter is specified, it will execute at least some of the above tasks automatically. The automation can be added incrementally depending on the priority.
