Changes required in cloned server to configure it as standalone environment.

[Bajr Prakash Singh]

9.1.1 is already installed in my WebFOCUS environment. With a separate repository database, I now want to put up a QA server with the same configuration as the current server. Should I proceed with the standard process of a fresh install, or is there a list of files that I would need to modify if I were to clone the current server to set up a new server to create a standalone environment? 

Any thoughts?

Thanks in Advance

You can install an additional configuration and then migrate all settings.

To clone the config - you can clone your repository (using the repository tool or the database administration tool - depends on your database and preferences).

For the configuration you can manually cehcek the config on both systems or use a tool to compare and merge the config files (I usually use Winmerge - to merge those changes.

You need to do this for the config files in

• WebFOCUS Client
• WebFOCUS Server
• Apache Tomcat

ReportCaster config is stored in repository - so cloning the repository will take care - but you need to change some settings to make sure they fit for the new system.
