John, After reading your email I feel for where you are at. We tried to migrate our current database to a new server (we were swapping out hardware) and we found this could not be done (such a simple task). After 4 days and numerous calls to ISS Support they conceded that we could not merge data or re-attach the database due to problems we were encountering with the key files on both the G-series sensors and our DB server. Also, the ISSApp user in the DB that is automatically generated also caused us problems due to authentication not being granted for the Event Collector to contact the DB. We could not assign an Event Collector to either of our sensors and therefore could not see any new logging information coming through our console.
All information was exactly the same, IP, server name, DB name and we still could not migrate our DB across. We had to rebuild our entire system and start with a new DB, which meant we had lost the last 5 months of data and there was no way we could merge this back in (ISS confirmed this was not possible). Good luck! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of john maverick Sent: Friday, 4 February 2005 1:49 To: [email protected] Subject: [ISSForum] Attaching Reaslsecuredb with a diff name Our realsecureDB just went corrupt on us and we have a backup in a diff name,we attached the same succesfully, we need the app server and event collector to use this database instead of orig.We re-pasworded the app server and have a DSN to the new database but the event colllector has left us foxed Bottom line: We need events to be logged to this new database (with same schema as orig but diff name) how can this be done Pointers appreciated _______________________________________________ ISSForum mailing list [email protected] TO UNSUBSCRIBE OR CHANGE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, go to https://atla-mm1.iss.net/mailman/listinfo/issforum To contact the ISSForum Moderator, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The ISSForum mailing list is hosted and managed by Internet Security Systems, 6303 Barfield Road, Atlanta, Georgia, USA 30328.
