Server migration for a CMOD 10.5.0.5 implementation
« on: May 14, 2024, 07:16:00 AM »
We're moving the DEV CMOD environment to newer hardware The new server is running Linux version 9.x and a OS upgrade on the current  server IS NOT possible for us so here's what I think we can do to move the application to newer Linux 9.x hardware 

Stop CMOD on the Linux 7.x server
Stop the remote CMOD DB instance
Recursively replicate  file system and objects in /opt/IBM/cmod/cache1 to the new server
Stand up a Linux 9.x server with the same users, groups and file systems as my Linux 7.x environment
Install CMOD 10.5 from scratch on the new hardware
From the 7.x server, copy everything in the /opt/IBM/cmod/ibm/ondemand/V10.5/config directory for migration to the 9.x server.
(Including but not limited to files:
ars.cache
ars.cfg
ars.dbf
ars.ini
arsodf.xml
ars.stash
arsxform.xml
trace.settings
unzip
zip )

Make the necessary server-specific changes to each migrated file
Start the remote CMOD DB instance
Start CMOD on the new server

The steps outlined are what I think should happen to migrate the app.  Please let me know if I missed some critical steps.
