Move ignite server

Michael Denney — Thu, 10 Aug 2006 08:49:03 GMT

I have an ignite server setup that has clients use by sending a make_net_recovery images to the ingite server. Is it possible to move the ignite server configurations to a a different server? Or do I need to re-configure Ignite server? (and each client will have to at least change the nfs mounts/ignite server name)

Shalom Michael,

You an move everything.

You need to identify your archive location. If its on NFS EMC or EVA, you don't need to move the data. If its on local disk, you do.

Most of your custom configuration files are in /var/opt/ignite

They need to move.

Now you are ready to test.

Yes you can if your new server has already has Ignite software. move /var/opt/ignite to new server and move archives for clients to new server.

Thanks,
Srini

Thanks guys. I have the images and client configs(/var/opt/ignite/clients) on san disks..So I can just do a vgexport and vgimport. Modify /etc/exports on the new server, should be good to go.
