Re: Test System to Production System, Would Ghost Image work ? what is BMC recommendation?
I just did something similar with HP-UX (Remedy V6.3). In my case, I hooked a new server into a servergroup (db was the same). Needed to change two items in the ar.conf file (IP addr and SERVERNAME entries), adjust the armonitor.conf file to reflect new servername and remove all licenses that were brought over from the prior server. Needed to have the /remedy and /etc/arsystem dir structures restored. Had to make sure the database name was in the tnsnames.ora file on the new server. We also had the source server hooked in a cluster (so the arsystem file in /remedy/svrname/bin also needed a modification since there was a servername embedded in that file. Once I did the above, the server came up in evaluation mode and I was able to apply the new licenses. One of the important things to look at is that the workflow in your ARS system needs to be server independent. If there are references to specific servers in your workflow, you'll need to clean the workflow to make it server independent. - pritch -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Axton Sent: Saturday, June 27, 2009 2:03 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Test System to Production System, Would Ghost Image work ? what is BMC recommendation?

Re: History of AR System
Oh, yes. Stacked buttons! And server-side macros before Push Fields actions were possible. Being able to dispense with all our horrid run-process macros was a major step forward. Before pushes, when you sent data from one form to another via a filter Run Process action, it happened in phase 3. You had no assurance that it would happen, and you had no control over the order in which they would occur. It's hard to imagine we built enterprise-class applications on such a house of cards.

Re: Test System to Production System, Would Ghost Image work ? what is BMC recommendation?
You can copy the file system on Unix/Linux and update the configuration files; it's not so simple on Windows. You have to deal with the registry... Not something I am really keen on learning. I would imagine that a ghost image should suffice as long as you can deal with all the other registry updates (domain membership, server information, hostname, etc.).

Re: Test System to Production System, Would Ghost Image work ? what is BMC recommendation?
Thanks Axton. I was trying to save some time by doing ghost imaging but i think it is not worth it , as i may get other issues, which i don't want to want time on resolving them. Thanks again for your reply.

You have to deal with the registry... Not something I am really keen on learning. I would imagine that a ghost image should suffice as long as you can deal with all the other registry updates (domain membership, server information, hostname, etc.).
