Enterprise Console Upgrade from 3.x to 4.5 accross domains

IT-Monkey

Mornin all,

I have spent quite a bit of time reading through the migration guides found in the knowledge base and its covered pretty much everything.

My only question left is regarding the requirement for the new and old server to be on the same Domain.

Is it at all possible to migrate to a different domain?  (the end points are going to remain on the old domain for the time being)

Thanks

Mark

    So you do want to keep the database contents. Of course you'd have to change those settings where they refer to you management server.

    I don't know what you have in mind when saying trying to do the lot all at once as at one point you'd have to "change servers". As you can't install 3.1 on the 2008R2 it is not simple (didn't say impossible) to do it all at once.

    You also have to "replace" EM Library with SUM and adjust the policies accordingly. I'd try to "start" with only SUM and "new" policies on the new server, i.e. perform as many steps as possible on the old one. Be prepared that you need more than "some space" depending on the number of subscriptions.

    If you don't care about the clients'  "historical data" and have only a few groups and policies you could also simply set up SEC4.5 on the new server and skip the SEC migration. You'd just create the required groups and policies, then change the updating policies on the old server to use the new CIDs and wait for the clients to switch over.
