Log into the old server as the Certificate System user for that machine, and open the config/ directory.

about to read password cache

----- Password Cache Content -----
internal : redhat
Internal LDAP Database : passwordldap

This lists the information stored in the password cache. Write down both the tags and the passwords, such as the following:

internal=redhat

The listed tags and passwords are used to create the password.conf file.

If the old server instance used the password.conf file to start the server instance automatically, then this file must also be migrated to the new server instance.

cp old_server_root/cert-old_instance/config/password.conf 
/var/lib/instance_ID/conf/password.conf

Log into the new server as the Certificate System user, and open the Certificate System config/ directory.

cd /var/lib/instance_ID/conf/

Log in as root, and set the file user and group to the Certificate System user and group.

su
chown user:group password.conf

Log out as root. As the Certificate System user, change the permissions on the password file.

chmod 00600 password.conf

Copy the tags and passwords that were listed from the old pwdcache.db into the password.conf file.
