The following list describes the files you need to complete the migration. These files reside in the PalmOS_5020_DMS.zip file.


If migrating from version 4.3 or 5.0:
If migrating from version 5.0.1 or 5.0 Fixpack 1:

Notes:

  1. Before your administrator uploads the WEA5020_PalmOS_Mobility_MIGRATE package to the Device Management Server, you must update IBM Agent on your Palm device if you had Everyplace Client versions 4.3 or 5.0 previously installed. After you update your device with the IBM Agent provided with Everyplace Client version 5.0 Fixpack 2, your administrator can install the WEA5020_PalmOS_Mobility_MIGRATE package to the Device Management Server.
  2. Before you connect your device to the Device Manager Server to receive the WEA5020_PalmOS_BASE_MIGRATE.zip job, uninstall the invitation handler from the device. Refer to step 2 in "Migrating to Everyplace Client Version 5.0 Fixpack 2 using your desktop" for instructions.
  3. Although the WEA5020_PalmOS_BASE_MIGRATE package displays the name "WEA 5.0 Fixpack 2 Base Client Migration for Palm NLV" in the DM console, the package includes English as well as NLV.


After your administrator sets up the software distribution jobs for the files in the previous list, you can migrate to Everyplace Client Version 5.0 Fixpack 2 by completing a software update. Then, press the Menu key and tap Sync-> Replace Data to replace the data on your device with the current information on the server.

Note: Everyplace Client Version 5.0 Fixpack 2 acquires the device ID from your device. If the device ID you were using in "IBM WEA" does not match the device ID in Everyplace Client Version 5.0 Fixpack 2 and you do not replace data after you migrate to Version 5.0 Fixpack 2, the server will display a data mismatch error on your device. The server will also force your device to replace the data on the device with the data on the server.
