Install 11.2 for pure 64 instead of upgrade. How to retrieve all config settings from prior 10.0 installation?

Hi,

According to documentation, there is no path from a hybrid linux server to a pure 64 server. So, following the upgrade, you backup the NVDB and then save the current 10.0 server and then install the new 11.2 pure server. Once this is done. Is there a way to easily retrieve all the selection sets, job definitions, etc from the old instance and copy to the new one other than copying screen shots from webui of prior instance?

 

Thanks,

Henry

    Hi Andre,
    I think you are missing something. The NVDB backed up in step 3 is distinct from the db that is newly installed in step 5, so the restore job created in step 6 has no saveset from which to choose. Is this process similar to mysql where you can simply copy the db tree recursively into the new location? Will shutting down the instance and copying over the old backed up nvdb in $(NETVAULT)/db to the new location then starting up allow one to restore the nvdb?

    Have just confirmed that there is a checksum involved that precludes copying over the old db tree from one instance of the same version (11.2) to another instance.

    Thanks,
    Henry
