slightly bodged migration

jjohnson1980

Greeings everyone.

I recently migrated my SEC4.5 installation from a 2k3 server to a new 2k8 server. Everything was going well and id followed the migration guide through. Unfortunately i got a bit over keen and removed the old server as a SUM before they did their daily contact which would have given the clients the new server settings through the ammended reinit.bat & sav.cfg files.

The clients are still trying to update to the old server which is still live and sophos is still running on it however it doesnt seem to be giving them the new server info and pointing them at it.

Is there a workaround for this or is it a reinstall from the new server?

Thanks
James

    Hi!

    ....just a suggestion....in my case I copied mrinit.conf file from new server (Program files\Sophos\Enterprise console) to RMS folder in the old CID on old server. After that I used configcid \\oldserver\Sophosupdate\CIDs\SAVSCFXP....

    This "solution" was first written in user manual for migrating EC 4.0, but later was replaced with the use of scripts that you used.

    Hope this helps.
