Hi,
I'm in the process of migrating OnCommand Core (DFM) from a VM server (Server_A) to another VM server (Server_B) since Server_A is used for other monitoring service from other team.
I've just installed OnComand Core package 5.1 on Server_B and setup administrators login. The OnCommand version on Server_A is 5.02. I can downgrade to 5.02 on Server_B, if necessary.
My goal is to transfer all performance historical data on Server_A to Server_B. And if possible I want to migrate all filers' info (IP address, hostname etc) from Server_A to Server_B.
Is it possible? I looked at dfm commands. If I run "dfm backup create server_A_backup" on Server_A then copy the file to Server_B. And then run "
dfm backup restore server_A_backup" on the Server_B, the original DB is migrated to Server_B?
If you have any comments or suggestion, I appreciate.
Thank you in advance.
Mariko
