Prepare the Old Installation
1. Install the latest product fixes on the old Infrastructure Data Collector, then start the old or Infrastructure Data Collector.
2. Shut down the old installation.
If the product is running... | Take this action... |
As a Windows service | Shut down from the Windows Services window. Services are listed as Software AG product release. |
As a Windows application | Shut down from the Windows start menu. Applications are listed as Software AG > Stop Servers > product . |
On a UNIX system | Use the shut down instructions in the product documentation for your old release. |
3. If your old and new installations are on different machines, create a ZIP file of the old product installation to use as the migration source. The instructions in this section use the Java Archive tool to create the ZIP file. Specify the location of the Java Archive tool in the JAVA_HOME and PATH system variables on the machine that hosts the old product installation. The tool is located in the Software AG_directory/jvm/jvm/bin directory. On some systems, the lower-level jvm directory name includes additional information, such as /jvm/jvm160_32, or /jvm/jvm170, or /jvm/jvm_64.
a. You can reduce the ZIP file size by first moving the log files out of the old_Software AG_directory/profiles/InfraDC/logs directory.
b. On the product’s old machine, open a command window or shell.
c. Go to the Software AG directory that contains the old product and enter this command:
jar cfM ZIP_file_name.zip common/conf install/products profiles/InfraDC
d. Copy the product’s ZIP file to any directory on the machine that hosts the new product.
Important:
If using FTP to copy, use the binary file transfer mode\type. If you use another mode\type, the ZIP file might become corrupted.
