At the producer site, export the policy store to an .smdif file using the 4.51/4.61 version of smobjexport. The policy store includes all affiliate policy domain and key store information. Later, you import this .smdif file to the 6.x policy store.
You can export data in encrypted or clear text. If the 6.x Policy Server uses the same encryption key as the 4.51/4.61 Policy Server, do not export the data stores in clear-text. Using clear-text is necessary only if the 4.51/4.61 and 6.x Policy Servers use different encryption keys and it gives you a record of encrypted information, such as shared secrets.
Important! Be aware that if you export data in clear-text, you may expose sensitive information, such as passwords or shared secrets.
If your key store resides in the policy store, use the -k option with smobjexport because keys are not included in the export by default. To preserve your policy store, enter the following command:
smobjexport -ofile_name -dadmin_name -wadmin_pw -k -c -v -t
