How to Migrate Data on a Windows Master Server

Migrating data from the 4.0 version of the Master Server to the 4.1version of the Master Server deletes any data in the 4.1 version of the Master Server. The migration script stops both versions of the Master Server until the script completes the migration. The Master Servers will be unavailable for the duration of the migration.

Before You Begin

Follow the instructions in How to Install A Side-by-Side Windows Master Server to install the N1 Service Provisioning System 4.1 Master Server on the system where the previous version of the Master Server is installed. Both the 4.0 and the 4.1 versions of the Master Server must be installed on the same system before you begin the migration procedure.

Steps

1. Open a command prompt window.

2. Change to the C:\Program Files\N1 Service Provisioning System\4.1\server\bin\migrate directory.

   cd C:\Program Files\N1 Service Provisioning System\4.1\server\bin\migrate

   C:\Program Files\N1 Service Provisioning System\4.1\ is the directory in which you installed the Master Server.

3. Begin the migration by typing:

   .\cr_migrate.cmd

4. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the migration.

   When the migration is complete, the following message appears.

   Master Server migration completed successfully.

   Note –

   The listener port numbers for the Postgres database, Web Interface, and the Master Server are not migrated. The N1 Service Provisioning System 4.1 Master Server uses the port numbers that you supplied during installation.

5. Check the log file for any errors that might have occurred during migration.

   The migration script displays the location of the log file.
