Questions about Trex migration

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

I have some questions about Trex migration.

We have to migrate our Trex instances to another Hardware type (and operating system type).

Is it somehow possible to export the Trex database (indexes etc.) on the source Trex, and then import them on the new target Trex? I ask because i found another thread in here saying that this is only possible if the source and target OS is the same, and if the source and target Trex is the same version, I donu2019t know if this is true though?

Or is it easier to just install a new Trex, and then let it rebuild index etc.? And is this a feasible way to do it?

As you can see i don't know much about Trex, so any hints and good advice is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Kenneth

What is the size of your TREX Master Index. We have BIA On Blade and We perform the Index Rebuild when needed. It takes about 10 minutes for our 1.2 Gig Index.

So Install Clean TREX on new Hardware and REbuild the INdex.

By default delta index is off, I recommend to make use of Delta Index after hardware migration.

Thanks

Hello, What will be the migration procedure for Trex System when source OS is HP UX and target is RHEL? Backup and restore procedure will work in this case? Thanks in advance
