https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/sim5-2-database-migration/m-p/3687550#M16938 We have installed HP-Sim5.2 with local DB (MSDE). So i would like to migrate the local DB to an existing SQL Server.<BR />I have copied the database to the sql server and changed the odbc data source (system dsn)settings to the new sql server but HP-SIM still contacts only the local DB. What can i do?
