Upgrading Intralink Host Server

[jeff-gabby]

Hello,


I am installing a newIntralink Server (named Jupiter). Currently our Host Server Name is Neptune. I have created a Data Dump File and imported this into the Data Server and File server on Jupiter. There are references to Neptune in the Data that was imported.


I am not sure on how to change these links from Neptune to Juptier. There is a DSMU program installed with Intralink, but I do not know how to change the vault information (ie Jupiter C:\ptc\vault from Neptune D:\ptc\vault


Any Help would be greatly welcome

To rename a fileserver use sqlplus


At the prompt enter:-sqlplus system/manager ( assuming you have kept standard passwords )


SQL> select fsvid, fsvhost from pdm.pdm_fileserver;
FSVIDFSVHOST
----------------------------------------
1neptune
101anotherone


SQL> update pdm.pdm_fileserver
2 set fsvhost='jupiter'
3 where fsvid='1';
1 row updated.
SQL> select fsvid, fsvhost from pdm.pdm_fileserver;
FSVIDFSVHOST
----------------------------------------
1jupiter
101anotherone


SQL> commit;


To rename a datavault


sqlplus system/manager


SQL> select poolid, poolpath from pdm.pdm_pool;
POOLID POOLPATH
--------------------------------
101C:\ptc\da tavaults


102 P:\ptc\datavaults


SQL> update pdm.pdm_pool
2 set poolpath='D:\ptc\datavaults'
3 where poolid='101';
1 row updated.
SQL> selectpoolid, poolpath frompdm.pdm_pool;
POOLID POOLPATH
--------------------------------
101D:\ptc\da tavaults


102 P:\ptc\datavaults


SQL>commit;


No changes will be made until you commit, so if you make a mistake just quit and it will resort back to before update. You will have to stop/start the fileserver and dataserver.

To sort the filevault references, try this:


- install a file server on your new machine
- run the DSMU program
- in the Vault menu, createFile Server & add your new server details
- Vault > Move File vault > enter your old & new server info, & foldername
- it'll ask you to move the vault files -copy over all the .prt, .asm files from neptune to jupiter

ps - if your servername is changing, be sure to update all your client machines...the proiclient\tnsnames.ora file mentions your servername.


Alternatively, you could rename the servers & maintainNeptune as the main server... see this blog post about renaming intralink servers, etc...

Hi Guys,


Thanks for your responses. Proed we are attempting your method, but the DSMU hangs when we pick create File Server. We can resize the tables using the DSMU.


Do we need to install the TOOLKIT and Client on the Server?


Thanks again

first, I've found the DSMU sometimes hangs during fileserver tasks, usually restarting the program sorts this...


you don't need Toolkit for any of this, since it's all standard functionality.
