BOXI3 : How to copy a CMS to a new server?

[Former Member]

Hello everybody,

Currently we have some problems on our production environnement.

Due to the complexity of the problem, we want to copy the production cms on our development server.

This is how we proceeded:

1- copy of frsinput and frsoutput on our dev server

2- copy of the production referential database using cmsdbsetup

But when we start the dev server all the servers are stopped and we have the following erro message "unable to locate the SIA on the server".

Can somebody give us some guidance to solve the problem?

Hi,

Please try the following steps.

1) Create a blank database

2) Open CCM in the server and go to the configuration tab

3) Specify the DataSource for the CMS

4) Select the option Copy DataSource

5) Point the old database to the blank database

6) Once the copy of DataSource is done

7) Point the old file store to the new filestore location.by running the import wizard

😎 Start the SIA

Hope this helps

Hi,

Thank you for your quick replies.

I forgot important information.

Our confiuration is:

- OS: Sun Solaris 10

- BOXI3.0 with LAFIX16 and LAFIX33

- We have a production and a DEV environments that have already been installed

We want to copy the production cms on the DEV cms. What we did is :

1- copy the frs from prodution server to DEV server

2- copy the referential and audit database from production to DEV

3- use cmsdbsetup.sh to configure to import the copy of the production referential database on the DEV

4- restart all servers

Problem: All the servers don't see rhe SIA; so they can not start.

Did we forgot a step in the process?

If your dev enviornment is a new one then

Please make use of the steps mentioned above.

In this case you will have to completely uninstall the dev environment.

After backing up the filestore and the database.

Make sure you have deleted the entries of bussinessobjects from the registry
