Staging Environment - Fresh install vs Modifying current (upgrade preparation)


Mahari Hill (4861184230) | asked Feb 16 '16, 9:12 a.m.
CLM 502
tomcat
ms sql server

Previous owner set up a copy of our production on a UAT machine. Now I want to get a fresh copy of production, do the server rename, and test the upgrade to 601.

Is it "wiser" to get a copy of the productions dbs, modify the conf directory files like teamserver.properties,etc...or should I install another "fresh" instance of 502 in another directory and go from then modify those files? Is one way better than the other?

thanks

Hi Mahari,

I think you should do an installation of 5.0.2 in another directory and move over and modify teamserver.properties and other configuration files, e.g. log4j.properites, any of the Tomcat configuration files (server.xml, web.xml, tomcat-users.xml) if you are using Tomcat).

Thanks,
Brett
