800xA IM
Hi,
I need to migrate an history database from 800xA ver 5.1 to 800xa ver 6.1.
Which is the best way to proceed .
I thought just creating an instance with the same feature of the old one, doing a backup of this
and making a restore on the new one.
My problem is that the new IM node will have a different IP address some some services on the the Aspect Server
must be corrected/modified. and also I need to expand the size of the message log.
Any suggestion will be appreciated .
Thanks so much
PB

Isn't this covered in the Upgrade Manuals?
IIRC, a different IP address should not matter.
- Backup Aspect Directory with 800xA Full Backup (=your tags and Log Templates and Log Configurations)
- Backup IM with hsBAR.exe (=your log data, messages, PDL, etc.)
- Install new hardware
- Upgrade 5.1 > 6.1 following the official procedure (create temp system, deploy features, export state aspects, delete system, restore 5.1 backup, import state aspects)
- Restore IM backup with hsBAR
- Done.
