New FMS setup for changing the DB type

Hi,

 

We are planning to change our database type from Oracle to MSSQL.

And we are talking this opportunity to upgrade the FMS version also.

 

To achieve this we are completely uninstalling old FMS(version 5.6.11) and reinstalling the new FMS(version 5.7.5) in the same server.

 

I have few question here could anyone please answer this please?

  1. We want to import all the customs rules and dashboard to new FMS. What is the best way to do this? Is this possible with different version of the FMS?
  2. After the installation will all the old Agents will connect back to the new FMS?

 

Can guide me what are all the other steps I need to consider here?

 

 

Thanks,

VML

  • Actually thinking about it the beauty of your upgrade is that it is on the same OS based FMS and its only the database that's changing. I would suggest creating a separate instance of the FMS to connect to what would be the old database if you have the scope to do so for historical purposes, but if the historical data is really not required then go ahead.
