Appendix C: Migrating your Security 
Database
This appendix describes the procedure for migrating your Security Database from a 
Netware Server to a Windows Server.
Migrating from a NetWare Server to a Windows NT, 
Windows 2000 or Windows XP Server
To migrate from a NetWare telephony server to a Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows 
XP telephony server, you need to convert the Telephony Services Security Database 
(SDB) to a format understood by the Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP server.  
This can be easily accomplished using the Bulk Administration feature.  This appendix 
describes the basic procedure for performing this conversion.  Additional information about 
the Bulk Administration feature can be found in Chapter 6 of Avaya Computer Telephony 
1.2,Telephony Services Administration and Maintenance 
(NETMANGD.PDF).
Bulk Administration allows you to create an ASCII file containing all the information stored 
in your SDB.  Each file in the file is separated by commas so it can be viewed using any 
standard spreadsheet.  You can make any modifications you want with the spreadsheet.  
(Be sure to import information into the spreadsheet as text, not as numbers.)  When you 
are done, you must copy this file to your Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP 
server and use it to populate the SDB on this server.
Note:
Note:
Before beginning this procedure, install Telephony Services software on the 
Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP machine.
