Solution Manager Migration

[Gustavo_Goicochea]

Hi people, we are going to migrate our existing SolMan on a virtual Windows with SQL Server DB to an AIX with DB2 physical server.

But the question we need to ask you is about if there is some recommendation (from your experience) about what things we need to consider at that moment regarding Monitoring, SLD, CHARM, Service Desk, etc.

Whats your experience about that kind of migration, how traumatic they result?

thanks & regards

Gustavo

Hi Raquel, as you mentioned we can perform and homogeneous/heterogeneous copy, but the big problem for me is that we hava a big mess with current SolMan, a lot of syntax error dumps, the EHP1 was not fully implemented and everyday is a new problem.

That's way we are thinking in a new installation, export all project data (I know we can do it), we must re create all monitoring system (I don't know if we can export too), and service desk is the big question because everybody tell us that we can not export/import data, so may be, we need to keep both systems while current projects remain ongoing.

What do you think.
