Hello,
We are migrating management and log servers to new hardware with new IP addresses (the hostnames are NOT changing).
1. Is it necessary to run migrate server procedure to export/import the current database on the log server in addition to the management?
2. As we are changing IP addresses (management changing from internal IP which currently NATs outbound, log server changing from public to public), can you confirm it is necessary to create the mdss.json file (see page 199 on guide) on the target management server? The JSON file contains the name of the target server and new IP address.
[{"name":"mgmt-01","newIpAddress4":"new-ip-address"}]
3. I've provisioned a R81.10 VM to test the import of the current R80.40 database.
When exporting, after installing the R81.10 upgrade tools and verifying, from $FWDIR/scripts on the current server I ran ./migrate_server export -v R81.10 /usr/tmp/server_export.tgz
The MD5 hash is calculated successfully.
When importing, from $FWDIR/scripts on the target server, I ran command ‘nohup ./migrate_server import -v R81.10 -skip_upgrade_tools_check /usr/tmp/migrate_server/mgscp02_export_test.tgz &’ and monitored the output in nohup.out.
On this attempt the import exists after 30 minutes with the following message. The import does not complete.
'Minimal post intsall did not finish after 30 minutes. Existing'
Regards,
Simon
