Export the 5.x Policy Store Data

Export the 5.x policy store data as detailed in Back Up the 5.x Policy Store and Key Store.

Consider the following:

• If your key store resides in the policy store, be sure to use the -k option when exporting the policy store. By default, policy store keys are not included in an export.
• If the r6.0 SP6 Policy Server uses the same encryption key that is stored in the 5.x policy store, you do not need to export the policy store data in clear–text. Exporting sensitive data in clear–text is necessary only if the 5.x and 6.x Policy Servers use different encryption keys.
