Server to Server Migration

[turbopige]

Hi,

I have MirrorSync(2.6) configuration with FileMaker Server to FileMaker Server Configuration.

I Stop the synchronisation, I stop FileMaker server spoke , I transfer on the new one...  

I have to change the ip configuration on the Spoke Server but MirrorSync ask me to install with a clean DataBase .... But it's impossible because we have a lot of Container Field ... and it will take to much time... 

What can i do to not have this problem. 

 

Thank you

Marc

With MirrorSync 2.x, you will need to re-run the initial sync with a new configuration. There's no way around that. However, if you put a full copy of the hub database on the new spoke server, then the initial sync shouldn't need to actually write any records, so it should run fairly quickly.

In MirrorSync 3, there is a process that you can follow to migrate to another server.
