Re: FW: Copy of Production Database for Testing

2007-10-22 Thread Clarkson, Timothy
** 

Ok,

 

I will explain a bit better.

 

I have a production server with  a license and this is working fine.

 

I have a testing server with a separate license running on the test
server, I have installed all the component and checked that it is all
working.

 

I am now looking to get the database from the Production server to the
test server and document this process so I can use it for testing in the
future.

 

Issue:

When I copy the production database to the test server it comes up in
demo mode, so I am missing something in the copy/setup to allow me to
take a copy of the Remedy database between two licensed servers.

 

Regards

Re: FW: Copy of Production Database for Testing

2007-10-22 Thread Howard Richter
My question is what are you running (for example Remedy 7.x with ITSM), also
what database?



What we have done here is create two systems, one production and one
development, that are identical. We are running on Oracle. So after any
production patching, I have our DBAs refresh our development environment
with the production database. We need to address the e-mail mailboxes, the
CAI form and that is about it.



I hope that helps



Howard

Re: FW: Copy of Production Database for Testing

2007-10-22 Thread Joe D'Souza
If it is V7.1, the license information is now stored within the database, so
you may need to re-enter the test server licenses after deleting the current
licenses that you see. I am not yet sure on the exact mechanics of how the
new licenses work on 7.1, but I am pretty sure that they now get stored
within the database. So your Test server must be trying to validate the
production server licenses and seeing them as invalid.

IF this is not your case, then maybe your server has got more than one
network card and you might have licensed the server against the wrong NIC?

FW: Copy of Production Database for Testing

2007-10-21 Thread Clarkson, Timothy
Hi there all,

I would like to copy a production Remedy 7.0.1 database and use that for
some testing. I have done the following:

Steps so far

1) Create a production server and enter some data, this solution has 1 x
Mid-Tier server (7.1), 1 x ARS Server and 1 x ARS database

2) Create a testing server all components exist on the same server

3) copy the database from production to testing

I can see everything ok, it is just the license issue

Issue

My license stops working on the testing server and says it is in demo.

Question

is this a simple case of clearing out the caches and restarting ARS or
have I missed something more fundamental.

If you know a good KB article that covers this I would appreciate that
link, I have some on migrating 

Following KB's Reviewed:

KM-4186 - How to implement a disaster recovery plan for the
Remedy Server

KM-5919 - How to migrate an application from one server to
another. (Seems to long winded to do on a regular basis)

KM-00024132 - What are the procedures to Upgrade and Migrate AR
Server on a Windows platform with SQL Server?

  licenses are per server, so it is correct, your test server is not licensed. 
talk to your sales rep and they should be able to suggest ways for you if you 
need full license. You can do almost everything with the demo license apart 
from creating more than 2k records per form.
