Hi ARSListers! We're currently planning to migrate existing Remedy environment in Sun Solaris to Windows Server. Below is the current system information:
ARS 7.0.1 p10 running on Sun Solaris 10 Oracle 10g running on the same server Mid-tier 7.0.1 patch 6 running on MS Windows Server 2003 Memory size 8GB 4 UltraSPARC-IIIi virtual processors each running on 1.6GHz No ITSM applications installed. AR System is used for in-house developed applications (consisting of 1052 forms). average of 60-70 concurrent users. 600 registered users Initial possible scenario I’m currently looking at 2 options below: 1.Upgrade Remedy Server to latest version, purchase new hardware, and use the same platform (Solaris 10) . OR 2. Full migration to Windows Server 2008, including the database migration to SQL Server 2008. This is to reduce the cost of our support and maintenance for the servers Please give me any advice if what option is the best to implement. I’m really keen on just using the same platform (Solaris) but we currently don’t have any Solaris/Oracle support which pretty much led us to looking at the Windows migration. If you can list all the pros and cons on doing any of the options, that will surely help me. In addition to that, may I know if anyone here has any experiences migrating from Unix to Windows environment recently or in the past? If you can let me know your success stories (and migration strategy), it would be greatly appreciated. Any good inputs will be appreciated. Regards...
