Novell is putting together a Best Practices guide for migrating to OES2 from NetWare. Obviously this is OES2-Linux, as there is not much that needs migrating when going from OES-NW to OES2-NW. They're soliciting community input for the guides, and will be offering Cool Solutions reward points for contributions.
This is interesting. I know that the Novell Support Forum Sysops tend to build up their own micro guides based on problems people report in the forums, and this is a way to better formalize that. Some of the sysops have taken to using the Cool Solutions Wiki as a place to park boiler-plate answers and forward questioners to those pages. This is an interesting concept.
More interesting as OES2 isn't out yet, even in an open-beta form. Where are we going to get our experience from, eh? This implies that shortly we'll have at least an open beta to try out. I hope so.
I can't contribute much to this document because my main migration is contingent on AFP being eDir integrated, and they've said that'll not happen until probably SP1. If I do anything it'll be the eDir servers, and those are relatively easy migrations. DFS is the only sticking point for that.
