BOFC migration the configuration to new server

[SAPSupport]

Dear support,

Now we plan to upgrade OS and apps, but HEC is not allowed in-place OS upgrade.
So we will build new server and migrate configuration to new server.
How can we migrate the configuration to new server from old server?

Dear Customer,

If your update involves DB server, the first and most important step is to backup your database for FC.

Then, after you have installed the broker and application server, and deployed WebAdmin (and/or Web, WebHTML5, WebService) you can copy the original web.config to reuse the existing settings.

Also for the list of datasources defined in WebAdmin, you can reuse the original ApplicationDatasource.xml file

Please note that migrating system is a consulting topic, we as product support will help you the best we can, but we recommend that you contact our consulting team for their expertise and more importantly their experience.

Best Regards,
