Even so it won't be of any harm if you set it up like a server group. Even if it is the only server in that group.. I know what you are saying and I have worked in places where they could not afford to replicate the production server setup in terms of maintaining a certain number of servers in a server group as a part of pre-production test environments.. But you have nothing to loose from getting as close as possible to it.. and the closest you can get is setup a server group with just that one single server in it.

I will delete the data and apply the server licence and see what happens when the server is restarted. thanks frex ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- De : Joe D'Souza <[email protected]> À : [email protected] Envoyé le : Ven 26 Février 2010, 18 h 16 min 14 s Objet : Re: server group config tables (ARS 7.1 patch04) ** Technically all.. Delete it all, then reapply licenses for the current server.. Also delete everything from the Server Ranking form.. Restart the server after reconfiguring the server group to a new name you want for your pre-production even though that may be the only server in that new server group. Do not forget about the manual configurations that you require to do on your ar.conf (ar.cfg if on windows) file for that new server group. On restart, these forms will automatically get repopulated with all the relevant server group related options.. The server ranking form will also be populated with all the relevant entries (used to be 10 with 6.3, I think its 14 now on 7.5??). Open the server ranking form and assign the rank for each operation that you desire for that server (1 for all if that's the only server).. If there is more than one server in the pre-production node, repeat the same exercise.. use the new server group name you chose for the first server...

We managed to get the preproduction server working along with EIE and the rest of the services.. However some of the objects (server group tables in particular) are still being references at server start up (at least). In the Admin tool, I still see the server group name being read from servgrp_config table etc... I Did a select on sysobjects and saw the followings: servgrp_config servgrp_applic servgrp_board servgrp_op_mstr servgrp_userlic So the question is which of the above 's data can be removed without compromising the system. Are there any other forms /tables e.g (server operation ranking) whose data needs to be updated to bear the new configuration for the new server.
