Our plan is to move to 7.5.1 on a new Windows Server 2012 R2. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to best do this? Our SQL database is not on the same server so we should be able to point it at the new database. &nbsp;</P> Tue, 16 Aug 2016 17:17:23 GMT yamidiaz 2016-08-16T17:17:23Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hp-sim-upgrade-from-7-4-to-7-5-with-move-to-new-server/m-p/6889287#M61008 <P>We currently have 7.4.0.12 installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2.

Then you need to copy credentials and run and identification.<BR /><BR />The other option is to first update your old server to SIM 7.5 1 run a clean install on the new server and configure your new config to use the old database. Both need more explaining what do you want to use?<BR /><BR /> Thu, 18 Aug 2016 20:08:01 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hp-sim-upgrade-from-7-4-to-7-5-with-move-to-new-server/m-p/6890402#M61010 Andrew_Haak 2016-08-18T20:08:01Z
