It could reference production data if you do not check your workflow for hard-coded references.. For e.g. if a Table field has got a hard coded reference of Production data, it could look up the wrong server.. The same could happen with other workflow, like Set Field etc..

Do you think there might be risks like: ## Anyupdate in the QA environment might reflect on Production. I believe even if it happens it can be taken care of from the configuration or DB.. Also let me know where I should remain focussed in case of probable risks.

You next main task then is to update the Remedy config files ( ar.conf, etc.) so that they match the new host you’re on as well the new database you’ll be using. If you’re also copying the database, depending on what apps you have installed, you may also need to do some data cleanup after getting your Remedy services up and running on it.

The approach we are trying to follow is image cloning. The servers are virtual (VMs) and the OS is Solaris. But we are not sure of the risks since it has not been done before. Please somebody come up with suggestions,its very urgent. It will be much appreaciated!
