VM Host change - Virtual Server - VMWare

Post by MSidat »

Hi All,

Cant find anything on the forum about this, though there might have been as am sure its something some of the experts would be doing on a regular basis. I am shortly planning an upgrade to 10.2.2 FP6. My Dev environment is on a VM Farm and I have set up the installation exactly how we would need it in live in terms of TM1/BI installations, Excel installation, FP, windows Patches etc (apart from the actual TM1 instance name that is).

Thankfully I have inhouse server people to call upon and they have advised that they can quickly replicate the whole VM and call it something relevant for a Production System. So my question is basically once this is done, what else would need changing to ensure the TM1/BI components work. So far I have the following list:

1, Open and Update Cognos Configuration for both BI and TM1.
2, Update individual TM1 Config Files.
3, find and replace within pmhub file held in c10_64_webcontent
4, find and replace within planning file held in c10_64_webcontent
5, find and replace within fpmsvc_config file held in tm1_64\webapps\pmpsvc\WEB-INF\configuration

Am I missing anything, or are some of the steps pointless as changing the configuration may update them anyway?

Thanks in advance
Always Open to Opportunities
