CML - How to move a CML to another disk on the same server

This document describes how to move CML server to another drive on the same server. The steps are very similar also for the single node installation (1CML only).

Step 1 - server backup

This part describes how to backup server that shall be moved to the new location.

Perform these steps only on the server that shall be moved to new location

1

Open the Services window (e.g. Start => Run => services.msc) and stop all YSoft SafeQ services (stop whole CML server):

  • YSoft SafeQ CML

  • YSoft SafeQ CML DBS

  • YSoft SafeQ Terminal Server

  • YSoft SafeQ LDAP ReplicatorService

  • YSoft SafeQ Web Interface

Using CML Backup tool perform following actions:

3

Backup following folders:

  • <SAFEQ_DIR>\server\spool

  • Folder containing scripts for scanning (in case that scan to script is used)

4

Be sure that all required components for server installation are existing on the server. Required components:

  • SQDB5 backup

  • SQDB5_SQDW backup

  • Configuration backup

  • Scanning scripts

  • YSoft SafeQ 5 Installation files

  • <SAFEQ_DIR>\conf\startup.conf file

Step 2 - new server installation/configuration

This part describes how to install a CML server in the new location.

1

Perform CML server uninstallation

2

2a. Perform the installation

Install YSoft SafeQ in the new location according to Customized server installation instructions.

Installation requirements:

  • Install only one CML server node (Do not connect it in to existing cluster!)

  • Use the same database type as for other nodes that are installed already or for original CML

  • Choose the destination folder on another disk

  • Choose not start services after installation

2b. Replace startup.conf file

Replace <SAFEQ_DIR>\conf\startup.conf with previously saved one

Edit all values according to new location

2c. Restore spooler and scan scripts

Restore spooler and scan scripts previously saved to new location

2d. Restore any nonstandard configuration

Restore any nonstandard configuration made on previous CML

3

Restore databases

Restore databases on a newly installed server according to the CML - Database restore instructions.

4

Postinstallation steps:


4a. Configure permissions for services

  • Open the Services window (e.g. Start => Run => services.msc) and set YSoft SafeQ services to run under the same account as on the old system.

4b. Start the services

Open the Services window (e.g. Start => Run => services.msc) and start all YSoft SafeQ services:

  • YSoft SafeQ CML

  • YSoft SafeQ CML DBS

  • YSoft SafeQ Terminal Server

  • YSoft SafeQ LDAP Replicator Service

  • YSoft SafeQ Web Interface

5

Verify that synchronization in the cluster is functional:

  • Log in to the web interface (YSoft SafeQ Web interface => System => System information)

    • Verify that new IP address is visible in Cluster server info table

    • Verify that all servers are showing status ONLINE (the node you are connected to may show status LOCAL)

    • Verify that synchronization between the nodes in the cluster is functional. See table DBsync database & system pools (non-local servers only). Values in column Database pool priority must not be growing constantly. They shall be changing and they shall be often around 0.
