The installation program invokes the sm_migrate utility to backup the existing user-customized files and base files. It also presents the sm_migrate command to be run after the 2.3.0 installation to complete a three-way merge of the following sets of files:
-
Existing user-customized files in the <BASEDIR>/smarts/.migrate.bkp.<version> directory.
-
Existing base files in the <BASEDIR>/smarts/.migrate.bkp.<version> directory.
-
2.3.0 base files in the BASEDIR/smarts directory
The sm_migrate utility invokes another utility, the sm_merge utility, for each of the files that requires a three-way merge. Chapter 7, “Migration Utilities,” explains how the sm_migrate and sm_merge utilities work.
