Understanding the Central Configuration Server

Viewing and Changing the CCS for a Server
c
Before beginning the following procedure, be sure to make a backup of the database. See
“Creating and Restoring Database Backups” on page 29 for information on running a
backup. You can use the Start Backup Now feature to start a backup immediately.
The following procedure is based on these assumptions:
• Server A is the CCS.
• You want server B to be the CCS for server A. You want to use the settings and user
information that exists on server B.
• You do not want to keep the CCS information that exists on server A.
To change the CCS for a server:
1. Back up the database. See “Creating and Restoring Database Backups” on page 29.
2. Make sure that server A and server B are the same version, otherwise the CCS does not
reset. See
“Viewing Server Information” on page 87.
3. Start the Interplay Administrator on server A, and log in to Server A.
4. In the User Management section of the Interplay Administrator window, click the Central
Configuration Server icon.
The Central Configuration Server view opens.
5. Use the arrow in the Central Configuration Server list to select server B to use as the CCS.
A warning appears explaining the consequences if you have not followed the procedure
“Moving the CCS to Another Server” on page 105 and moved the _InternalData folder to
server B.
Moving the _InternalData folder is usually recommended. If you do not, all users and local
administration settings are lost.
