Copy Core Depot to 2nd Ignite Server

[D Block]

I need to copy a core depot to yet a 2nd Ignite Server.

assume: Ignite Server A is primary. Ignite Server B is secondary.

assume: Ignite Server A depot path is /path/core11.11

can one do something like this ?

on Server A:
swcopy -x enforce_dependecies=false -s /path/core11.11 \* B:/path/core11.11

so this will copy the entire 11.11 core os image depot to a second server ?

Is there any better suggestions on how to copy both the Core OS and the Applications or even the HWEnablements to a secondary Ignite server?

any checklists will be appreciated.

Thousand Thanks


thanks,
D.

The correct command on Server A will be
# swcopy -x enforce_dependecies=false -s /path/core11.11 \* @ B:/path/core11.11

and what about other depots that are larger than the 'core'. Like the GoldBase and GoldAPPS. These can also be swcopy'ed over the network ? Might take a long time, but it should work, correct ?

You can rcp the directory from the first to the second.

Then swreg the second

swlist -d -i to review the second

Yes, you can swcopy the larger stuff without problem. This is what I use anytime I migrate from one depot server to the next.
