Operating Systems SCO Increase disk size on OS side on the fly Post 302985260 by jgt on Monday 7th of November 2016 03:32:32 PM
Old 11-07-2016
I would be inclined to do a fresh install in order to create the virtual system.
Install all the maintenance patches.
Install all the additional software.
Use 'ap' to transfer all the user accounts.
Use the following:
Code:
cd /usr/bin
ls -ltr |grep -v "@"
cd /bin
ls -ltr |grep -v "@"

This will list all the files in those two directories that are not part of the OS, and you can check the files that have dates significantly more recent that either the OS media date, or the original install date.
Copy the contents of /etc/rc?.d along with /usr/spool/cron/crontabs.
Assuming you are using SYSV printing and not CUPS, copy the contents of /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces from the old system, after you have re-created all local printers on the new system.
Copy /etc/hosts, and /etc/resolv.conf from the old system.
If you use the same OS license on the new system, you will have to keep the systems on different tcp subnets, otherwise one of the systems will shut down.

Name
       uucompact, uumkspool, uurespool, uupoll - uucp utilities

Syntax
       uucompact -ssystem
       uumkspool system ...
       uurespool [ -t# ]
       uupoll system ...

Description
       All of the commands are located in

       The  command  compacts  uucp  system spool directories and associated subdirectories. If system is ALL, then all existing uucp system spool
       directories are compacted.  Otherwise, only the specified system spool directory is compacted.  If no system is	specified,  is	compacted.
       If  is stopped before it is finished, it can be restarted without reprocessing directories.  The command continues processing where it left
       off during it's previous instantiation.

       The command makes a per system spool directory and associated subdirectories for each of the specified systems.	For example, if system	is
       mk3 and if the local system name is penny, the following directories are created:
	       /usr/spool/uucp/sys/mk3
	       /usr/spool/uucp/sys/mk3/C.
	       /usr/spool/uucp/sys/mk3/X.
	       /usr/spool/uucp/sys/mk3/D.
	       /usr/spool/uucp/sys/mk3/D.penny
	       /usr/spool/uucp/sys/mk3/D.penny
       The  command  moves files from old spool directories to	new spool directories.	Because the structure of the spool directories has changed
       from older versions of it is necessary to respool old spooled files to new spool directories in at least two instances:

       o    When installing the current version of

       o    When creating a new system spool directory for each system.

       In the latter case, it is necessary to move files from to the new spool directories.  To ease this task, moves files that have been spooled
       in  one	of 4 formats and respools them under the new spooling structure.  The format is specified by the -t# option, where the number sign
       (#) can be any one of the following:

       o   Original spool - All files are in

       o   Split spool - Contains the subdirectories

       o   Modified split spool -  Contains all subdirectories listed in split spool, and

       o   Used when a new system directory has been created and spool files must be moved from the DEFAULT directory to the new system directory.

       The command forces a connect attempt to the named systems even if recent attempts have failed, but not if the file prohibits the call.  For
       example, the file will prohibit the call if it is the wrong time of day.  Thus, the should be monitored for messages about the connection.

Files
       Spool directory

       Logfile
