How to migrate os x server to new hardware

I am looking for the quickest easiest way to migrate OS X server to new hardware that I purchased. I currently have both DHCP and DNS services actively running.  I have VPN services running when needed.

Reid,
Thanks for your response.  I actually migrated everything that I needed over about an hour after I posted.  For DNS I simply copied all of the zone files in /Library/Server/named and restarted the DNS service.  DHCP took a little more investigation as I had to find where the configuration file was being stored.  I eventually found the configuration in /etc/bootpd.plist file that contains all of the DHCP info and copied it over to the new system.  Once I restarted all services everything was working fine.
I took this approach rather than a direct cloning as I wanted a clean install of everything on the target system.  Also, as I mentioned before, I didn't have many services running that I needed to have running on the new configuration.  The VPN services that I was running had only one test user so recreating it from scratch was a non-issue.

André

  • Migrate (N)AMP server to new hardware

    Hi,
    I have been looking for documentation on how to move an AMP configuration to
    new hardware (practically same OS-install, NW65SP7).
    Is there any info around 'cause I wasn't able to find any. And before I
    start dumping MySQL databases and Apache virtual hosts, I thought i'd ask
    here.
    On the origin server, webcontent and SQL db are placed on different volumes
    than SYS. I looked at MigrationWizard as well, but my replacement server is
    already in the same tree (new name).
    Any info, links or directions, appreciated.
    Regards,
    Marcel

    I'd transfer the database and adjust Apache and PHP settings manually.

  • Move / Migrate A Managment Server to New Hardware

    I want to move / migrate my existing SCOM 2012 SP1 Management Servers to new hardware running Server 2012 R2. We're going to leave the DBs where they are for now.
    It looks like I could just 'add' a new Management Server and then remove the older ones. Is it that simple?
    Orange County District Attorney

    HI,
    1. Install a new Management server in your management group.
    2, Move all SCOM agents from old MS to new management server.
    3. Move if there is any dependencyes on old MS to new MS (Like Exchange corelation engine serivce on MS for Exchange 2010 MP / Proxying for web application monitoring/ SMTP relay for SCOM email notification etc)
    4. properly uninstall Old MS to avoid issues (if not objects will left in resource pools)
    Kind Regards,

  • How to migrate PowerBook G4 Tiger to new MacBook Pro 15" Lion via ethernet cable? Migration Assistant to old to update, apparently.

    How to migrate PowerBook G4 Tiger to new MacBook Pro 15" Lion via ethernet cable? Migration Assistant to old to update, apparently.

    Ah, a Powerbook. I miss that.  Anyways, I believe that the Powerbook G4 has an Firewire 400/800 port.  Why don't you do that?  It's fast, and you don't have to set up one of those funky reverse wire ethernet cables.  I wouldn't use Migration Assistant, but that's just me.  Too many issues.  I'd start up your brand new MacBook Pro and during the setup assistant, it'll ask you to transfer data from an older Mac.  Using firewire with a Target Disk Mode, it's pretty fast.
    If you have already opened up your new Mac and are using it, then use Migration assistant, but also with the Firewire (preferably 800).

    If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate.  The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

  • How to Migrate the 12 Hives to new server in new farm

    Dear All,
    How could I migrate the 12 hives to new folder ??
    Are there specific folder I just copy/past or I just copy everything and override the original ?
    Thank you

    My first question would be why? Any customizations, hopefully, should be in .wsp format.
    Assuming you have manually copied files into the hive folder and are looking to get them to the new server, copying the whole hive across is a really bad idea. What I have done in this situation (more than once) is to use a differencing app such as Notepad++
    (with plugins) or WinMerge (my personal fave).
    1) Copy the hive from the source server to a temp folder on the destination server
    2) Use one of the apps above to compare the two directory structures
    3) Copy across just the missing files from the source folder to the destination hive
    By doing it this way you ensure you don't damage your fresh clean hive on the new server, and you should be able to get across the manual customizations you need.
    Good luck!

  • How to :Migration from existing 595 into new 595 in RAC?

    Hi all,
    This is the bit complicated task for me(i.e) first let me explain our environment
    We are having 595 two instances (RAC) and 8300 is our storage due to the position we are not able to enhance the memory and CPU in this existing 595 Server.So what we are planning to make another 595 servers with some high configuration?
    Since this is new area for me dont know any idea of how to migrate these into new 595 Servers.
    fy.i storage will not get any change it will be as it is.
    I need any docs or anyone pls share their ideas and steps how they did(suppose if anyone did this already)
    Waiting For your reply.
    Thanks & Regards
    M.Murali..

    If your objective is to replace the exiting 595's with new one's then follow the steps below :-
    1. configure both the new servers (595) for RAC installation - follow the pre-install steps required for installing clusterware etc. e.g. storage, network, ssh etc..
    2. add both the new servers as a "node3" and "node4" into the existing 2-node cluster - follow the "node add" procedure in the documentation
    3. turn-off the first 2 nodes on old servers (node1 and node2)
    4. test your application with only the nodes...
    5. remove the old nodes using "node delete" procedure given in the documentation

  • How to migrate BPM 11g server to another BPM 11g server

    Hi All,
    There is no change on BPM version (BPMN Editor 11.1.1.3.0.6.84 )
    just simply a physical migrate, changed application server, DB and server domain/IP
    Now we met questions when migrate DB date, there are four schemas DEV_MDS、DEV_SOAINFRA、DEV_ORABAM、DEV_ORASDPM, cannot used including install config settings, could not be used any more, could not be started.
    Is there any guide of how to migrate just user data please?
    Thanks for any help!
    Regards,
    Katherine

    Migration of environment should really be done through backup tools that ensure a consistent point-in-time view of the data. We recently had a need to use import/export for an environment. I'll post those notes here hopefully save some time if you have to use this approach. But I'll emphasize again that a backup/restore model is the better way to go.
    What we did
    We took an environment that had a small set of BPM processes and exported the data from the three core schemas.
    •     PS2_MDS
    •     PS2_SOAINFRA
    •     PS2_ORASDPM
    We then loaded that data into another domain, started the server, and interacted with the composites that had originally been deployed in another domain.
    What we didn’t do
    •     Export complex composites. We didn’t have access to things like AIA applications
    •     Export large amounts of data
    •     Test a broad set of features. We did use Workspace to create roles, view dashboard, and interact with task lists.
    What we learned
    We believe this confirmed the basic assumption that data can be exported from one BPM/SOA environment, then loaded and run in another environment. However the issues around user privileges, starting queues, etc, highlight the need to test the process in a broader context.
    Tools Used
    Data Pump
    Data Pump is an import/export tool provided by Oracle. A summary of features can be found at:
    http://wiki.oracle.com/page/Data+Pump+Export+%28expdp%29+and+Data+Pump+Import%28impdp%29
    SQL*Plus
    Used to run scripts
    Setup
    Create Users
    The data pump export will include privilege information in the export. And the data pump import will create users in the target database (assuming sufficient privileges for the user running the import). However we found that some roles related to AQ were not granted during the import. To resolve that issue we created scripts to pre-create the schema users and grant required privileges in the target environment.
    TODO:
    1.     Review the required privileges to see if there are data pump options that would resolve this
    2.     Verify that there are no additional privileges needed by applications in the target integration environment.
    Create Output Directory
    Data Pump needs to have access to the file system from the database.
    Make sure that the output directory is writable by the DB process.
    From SQL*Plus:
    create directory dbexport as '/scratch/ dbexport';
    grant read,write on directory dbexport to system;
    Export Data For Selected Schemas
    The Data Pump tool supports providing a list of schemas to export as part of a single operation. In this test case we exported the following core BPM schemas to a single file. The commands are in the do_exp.sh script.
    •     PS2_MDS
    •     PS2_SOAINFRA
    •     PS2_ORASDPM
    TODO:
    1.     Verify space required for the target database to ensure that there is sufficient space to export the data.
    Import Data into Target Schemas
    Data Pump supports mapping schema names and table spaces as part of the import specification. In this case we used the same Oracle instance, so the schemas were mapped to new names. The PS2 prefix was mapped to XYZ.
    Note that the OID transform property is required to avoid conflicts with existing object Identifiers.
    impdp system/welcome1 DIRECTORY=dbexport DUMPFILE=bpm.dmp transform=oid:n \
    REMAP_TABLESPACE=PS2_MDS:XYZ_MDS \
    REMAP_TABLESPACE=PS2_SOAINFRA:XYZ_SOAINFRA \
    REMAP_TABLESPACE=PS2_IAS_ORASDPM:XYZ_IAS_ORASDPM \
    REMAP_SCHEMA=PS2_MDS:XYZ_MDS \
    REMAP_SCHEMA=PS2_SOAINFRA:XYZ_SOAINFRA \
    REMAP_SCHEMA=PS2_ORASDPM:XYZ_ORASDPM \
    TODO:
    1.     Check the log for errors. The only errors we saw were related to trying to build stats on empty indexes.
    2.     Identify any other schemas being used
    3.     Verify if any other transform operators are needed
    Post Import
    Start Queues
    SOA infrastructure makes use of queues in the DB server. While the queue structures were created, they were not started as part of the import. The start_queues.sql script starts the queues.
    TODO:
    1.     Verify if there are any other queues that need to be started/configured
    2.     Verify if there are any other Stream/Queuing configuration tasks needed
    Update Data Sources on WLS
    Assuming an existing installation of SOA, the datasources need to be updated to use the new schemas.
    Start Domain and Verify Logs
    It’s important to check the admin and managed server logs for errors related to composite instances and MDS operations.
    Verify Composite State
    Log into EM and ensure that the state of instances is consistent with the prior state.
    Verify Application Roles and Role Mappings
    Since the composites are loaded from MDS, there will be no deployment to create application roles. If the environment is using LDAP or DB, then the validation is to check the mappings through Workspace. If the old environment used a file store, then you’d have to crate the role mappings through Workspace.
    Verify Workspace Operations on Existing Instances
    Verify that task list operations and dashboards are functional.

  • Migrating ZFH Server to new hardware.

  • How to migrate ADE content to a new computer

    At some point, everybody needs to upgrade to a new computer.
    After reading a great many postings in this forum, it seems obvious to me that many of us would greatly benefit from some specific guidance on how to install Adobe Digital Editions and Sony Reader Library Software (and reader device) or some other e-book application on the new computer, and then move the previously purchased e-book content from the old to new computer in a way that will ensure that the e-books can still be read.
    Specifically, I think that some/better guidance needs to be provided on the sequence of steps that must be taken, and the options that should (or should not) be selected to accomplish these actions.  For example, does ADE software get installed on the new PC first, or after installing the Sony reader library (or other reader) software?  Should we authorize the new computer?  How about the portable reader devices (Sony P600), do we leave the content on these or will we need to reload it?  Is there a way to ensure the Adobe ID for both SW applications (ADE & Sony Library) are the same so we don't get new or different ID assigned? Will a reader device (which may already contain ebook content) be recognized and automatically resynch with the new computer? and can it move its content from reader to PC, or must the purchased content first be loaded onto the new PC from the old PC, and then be moved (again) to the reader device?
    I can't help but think that answers to these (and many other) questions could be far more easily communicated by proactively publishing some basic (if general) procedures for accomplishing common actions like these, rather than repeatedly providing help to each of us after we have already done the wrong thing.  While technical help is always greatly appreciated, and it may be easier to address a specific problem, it is more effective to provide information that will help us avoid the problem in the first place, and thus reduce the case load and improve response time.
    If I were sufficiently knowledgable to be capable of providing this general guidance myself, I would certainly do so, but count me among the ignorant masses that are simply trying to buy, download, and read their e-books without rendering all their purchased content inaccesible.  I certainly wouldn't want to inadvertently provide misinformation that might cause even greater problems.
    In short, I think that all of us (forum readers) would greatly like to have some simple instructions presented on what to do, (or not to do), to initially set up our computers and to accomplish other basic functions once this has been done.
    Won't somebody with the needed expertise undertake to provide some instructions in this forum?
    Thanks (in advance) for you support.
    P.S. - Keeping purchased content on original (old) and new computers is NOT an option.

    How to migrate ADE from one computer to another:
    1.)  Ensure that your current content is authorized to an AdobeID
         In ADE select "Authorize Computer" from the "Library" menu  if it shows you your AdobeID you are good to go.
    2.) Copy files  - the files are the .epub and .pdf files in your Digital Editions folder in your Documents directory.   Alternatively you can simply copy the whole  Digital Editions folder.  If you copy the whole folder make sure you place it into your Documents directory.
    Note:  on Windows the folder names are "My Digital Editions" and "My Documents"
    3.) Install ADE on the new computer, make sure you enter in the AdobeID from step 1 and the password when asked
    The AdobeID that registred and shown (in step1) above is the same for ADE as it is for Sony EBL (the Sony desktop software) - they both pull from the same place.
    Unfortunately I don't know the steps for migrating Sony EBL.
    For the content on the reader device, you can leave them alone.

    Hi,
    Have a look at the Web Application Deployment guides which comes in two versions, one for Windows and one for Unix.
    You can find them at help.sap.com and they are named xi31_sp3_webappd_win_en.pdf and xi31_sp3_webappd_unix_en.pdf respectively.
    But to summarise it a bit, you will use wdeploy to manually deploy the WAR files to your existing web application server. It is not too complex, but if you are not familiar with running commands in prompt and with your web application server then I suggest that you get someone to assist you.
    Cheers,

    how to migrate cc from present iMAC to new iMAC?

    Just install the same way you did originally.  Download/install the desktop application, sign in, install the subscription application(s).  You are allowed to have two working installations so you can keep the original intact if you like.  If you prefer not to then you should sign out of the old installation as a minimum.
