A couple other things you should also cover:

1.  In the "Report" form where you might have added custom reports (or
possibly the out of box reports) for ITSM have a field for Server.  Make
sure that is updated.
2.  You may have RUN PROCESS commands inside filters that run specific
files on the application server.  These filters may contain the specific
application server name.

These and the others listed should cover what you need to update.

Subject: Re: Copy ARS Server with ITSM 7 thru database copy?

Let me summarize what you guys said so far about copying ITSM 7 from one
server to another one:

(1)Copying the file system from one server to another one is a bad idea.
Ok. I was not planning on doing this. Only want to copy the database,
after I install all the software on the new server.

(2)After I install all the applications, and copy the database to the
new server, I need to:
a)Update path to help files
b)Update SHR:Application records. I see the server references to update
on this form's records.
c)Update CAI:Application Registry records. I see the server references
on this form's records, so I will update them.
d)Need to update Configure "Custom Form Info" form records. I can't find
this form. Probably an alias.
What's the actual form name?
e)Update "Email form", meaning "AR System Email Configuration" form
recrods. I can't find server reference on this form. Are you guys
talking about a different form?
f)Need to reinstall EIE and AIE after database copy.
"To make EIE work after moving databases, read the note on how to
configure EIE on a server group or a shared database." EIE=Event
Integration Engine, AIE=Assignment Engine?
g)May need to update User and "People" (CTM:People) forms. I can't find
server name references here, but I guess I need to fix the license
information.

Is that it? It can't be that easy! May be it is.

I will then need to spend some more time modifying some parameters in
Server Info tab on Remedy Admin as well as ar.conf to account for the
fact that I may want the new server to behave differently (in my case no
server group setup).

I'm trying to see if I can somehow do a database query to see which
tables have my server name embedded. If I find anything new I will share
with you guys. 

In the mean time, please validate or add to the list above.

Wondering if there is any white paper on this. The likely answer is no.
Or, if the partner implementation trainings covers such a copy, or any
other way of copying apps. If not, that's an inexcusable omission.
Or so I think.

Regards.
