CLM(JTS & CCM) Migration from one AIX 6.1 server to another Windows 2008 server
Hello All,
We have an existing Instance on RTC 4.0.5 which is installed on a AIX server and this server will be decommisioned soon.
Hence now we need to Install a new Instance of RTC 4.0.5 in another Windows 2008 server and also migrate all the data from the old server to the new server.
Our configurations are
CLM 4.0.5 (CCM 4.0 & JTS 4.0)
DB2 9.7.6
Tomcat application server
Ldap authentication
Hence we want to move
RTC 4.0.5 (old server) -> RTC 4.0.5(new server)
Data from DB2 -> DB2
Tomcat -> Tomcat
Ldap -> Ldap (Use same existing repository groups)
Note: The hostnames are different for both servers hence I am quite concerned.
Please suggest what is the best approach to do this?

I think that it is possible. You can use following article as a help: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/BackupCLM/ It describes backup techniques but what you are attempting to do is to backup and restore environment on a different machine.
I am not sure whether it is possible to migrate database between different systems but you can always use repotools -export/-import commands.
If you are changing your server hostname, then you must perform server rename procedure: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYMRC_5.0.2/com.ibm.jazz.install.doc/topics/c_redeploy_server.html?lang=en
It seems that it does not matter whether you first migrate server/database and then rename server or you do it in reverse order.
Let us know if that helps.

Hello,
Hi Raj,
Well, I am not sure if someone ever tried migration in that way, anyway nothing comes to my mind which could go wrong.
