Yeah, AFAIK the only way to migrate ol acl to aci is doing them
manually, it is easy once you have figured out who have access on
which part. as more of the time when you have many access rules, it
became harder to migrate the file. I had 60 access rule on acl file
translated to 19 aci. I could have them less than 19 but I decided to
add aci on deeper leafs.


Check this link on redhat doc. it will help you to migrate whatever
service you are running now to aci,
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ag/8.0/Managing_Access_Control-Access_Control_Usage_Examples.html


Once you have done the migration, life would go easier and easier for you.
