This approach should work assuming that you have modified old server references in ar.conf/armonitor.conf/arsystem startup script etc. However if you are pointing this new server towards same ARSystem tablespace that is already been used by your development server then how are you going manage with Server Name hard-code references in the development db? However, you can use this newly built system like any other server group system works sharing common database, hence I trust it should work by just copying file system and modifying according to the new server name and paths.

I'm currently in the process of trying to make Remedy work on a Unix server. What we did was to setup the server to have the same attributes as of the current production. Copy all files, modify configuration files (ar.conf, arsystem.lic, etc,) and the start-up script. Not really sure this will work but we'd like to try. However, I don't have a test database to test with. So my questions is that - would it be possible that I could point my test Remedy to an Oracle DB that is already used by another Remedy instance (development). I would just like to see if Remedy will work on that Unix server without actually installing it. My goal is quite ambitious and I'm not sure if it really works but I think it's worth to try. Any comments / suggestions ? Thank you. :) Regards, Jojo Ochavillo IT - Application Center of Excellence (ACE) Support Tools Engineering Team Office: (214) 567-0647 Email: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
