Hitachi Global Link Manager Software Installation and Configuration Guide

¢
The database can be migrated when the database configuration
(Small or Medium) is the same on both the migration source and the
destination server, or when the database configuration on the
migration destination server becomes much larger than that on the
source server.
¢
In the database configuration on the migration source server, if the
number of the management target resources exceeds 70% of the
management limit, the database cannot be migrated to a database
that has the same configuration.
Notes for user information:
• If there is user information on the migration destination server, this user
information will be replaced with the user information from the migration
source server. Therefore, do not perform a migration to the machine on
which user information for the Hitachi Command Suite products already
exists.
• If the databases of several Hitachi Command Suite products installed on a
management server are migrated in multiple operations, the user
information is replaced with new information at each operation, and
eventually only the user information for the products migrated during the
last operation will remain. When you perform migration for multiple
products, be sure to migrate the databases in one operation so that user
information for each product can be migrated.
• You cannot perform migration to integrate the Hitachi Command Suite
products that were running on multiple management servers on to one
management server, because user information will be overwritten with
each successive migration.
General Procedure for Migrating Databases
To migrate databases:
1. Install, on the migration destination server, the Hitachi Command Suite
products whose databases will be migrated.
2. Export the databases at the migration source server.
3. Transfer the archive file from the migration source server to the migration
destination server.
4. Import the database at the migration destination server.
Installing the Hitachi Command Suite Products on the Migration Destination
Server
Install, on the migration destination server, the Hitachi Command Suite
products whose databases will be migrated. The version of each Hitachi
Command Suite product installed on the migration destination server must be
the same as or higher than the one on the migration source server.
