Upgrading to a Second Machine, Using the Same Host Name
To Upgrade to a Second Machine, Using the Same Host Name
- Provide a new machine for the upgrade.
- Note the host name you are using to access your currently-installed FME Server.
- On the new machine, configure the hosts file so that this host name resolves to the new machine.
- In a text editor, open C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts
- Add a line like this:
- In a text editor, open /etc/hosts
- Add a line like this:
- Backupthe FME Server configuration from the old machine.
- InstallFME服务器在新机器上。FME服务器上的Hostname dialog, specify the same host name as the previous installation.
- Restorethe backed-up FME Server configuration to the new machine.
- Test that your configuration has been migrated successfully by running a workspace from the Web User Interface in a browser on the new machine. Alternatively, if you want to test from a remote machine, you must temporarily configure the machine to route requests for the FME Server host to the new FME Server machine. Use the same procedure as step 3 above.
Instruct your IT department to switch the DNS setting for the host name so that it routes to the new machine instead of the old machine.
- UninstallFME Server from the old machine (or recycle the machine).
