Prepare the Old Installation
1. Install the latest product fixes on the old Optimize, then start the old Optimize.
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.
Note:
It is especially important to shut down all old Optimize instances (for example, Analytic Engines) that connect to database components you are going to migrate.
3. Upgrade from 10.7: If your old and new Optimize installations for a product are on different machines, create a ZIP file of the old product installation to use as the migration source.
a. On the old machine, open a command window or shell, go to the old_Software AG_directory/optimize/analysis/bin/migrate directory and run the command below. The command creates a ZIP file named optimize.zip in the same directory. Copy the ZIP file to any directory on the machine that hosts the new Analytic Engine.
ZIP-optimize.{bat|sh}
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.
b. On the old machine, open a command window or shell, go to the old_Software AG_directory/optimize/dataCollector/bin/migrate directory and run the command below. The command creates a ZIP file named dc.zip in the same directory. Copy the ZIP file to any directory on the machine that hosts the new Web Services Data Collector.
ZIP-dc.{bat|sh}
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.
