Migrate to 9.0 on the same system

Top Previous Next

To migrate to 9.0 on the same server as the previous installation, install the 9.0 server into a new directory

Run a command line import of any libraries to convert them to 9.0 format. This procedure is described in Importing 7.x/8.0 Libraries. Note this process can be run multiple times if needed, to assist in migration of large libraries. Only new or updated documents and images are imported.

Take steps to ensure no UnForm printing will take place to the previous server, then copy these files to the UnForm server directory:

•	ufarcacc.dat – library/user access table

•	ufarcgrp.dat – groups table

•	ufarcgac.dat – library/group access table

•	ufarclib.dat – library full paths and properties

•	ufarcusr.dat – user table

Use the browser interface Library page to modify the library paths to each of your new library locations. As you do so, the custom user and group access records will be updated with the new library name.

Be sure to update any rule files that have full paths to library names in archive commands, so printing archives will update the new library locations. If there are external links to old library names, add the old names as aliases in Library maintenance.

At this point, you can begin submitting print jobs to the UnForm 9.0 server.
