1.3.1 Save Tailor File
If you have made any changes to your PMDF tailor file
(/etc/pmdf_tailor), you must save this
file before you upgrade because it will be overwritten by the
installation.
After upgrading, you should check the new pmdf_tailor file
and merge in any changes that you made to your version of the file.
1.3.2 Change PMDF User Account Name
If you are upgrading from PMDF V5.0, change the PMDF user account name
before you start the upgrade. If you are upgrading from PMDF V5.1 or
later, skip the this section and go to the installation procedures.
PMDF V5.0 used pmdf_user to specify a PMDF user account
(an unprivileged account used for performing some specialized tasks).
As of PMDF V5.1 the name of the PMDF user account is
pmdfuser. This PMDF user account name is relevant for
sites using PMDF sequence number files.
The old pmdf_user was problematic on Tru64 UNIX systems,
as it is greater than eight characters in length.

pmdf_user, change it to use the new name,
pmdfuser. However, if you do not want to change the
account name at this time, you can use the following command to set the
PMDF_USER_USERNAME option in the PMDF tailor file
(/etc/pmdf_tailor) to point to the old PMDF user account
name:
PMDF_USER_USERNAME=pmdf_user |
