How to put the 3.1 Demo Database on a separate drive partition
Problem
We want to put our RecTrac 3.1 Demo database on a separate hard drive. Please send the instructions.
Solution
To move a RecTrac 3.1 Demo database to a separate drive:
1. Stop the Demo Database in OpenEdge Management Console
2. Zip/move VSI3/RecTrac/Data/Demo folder to new drive
3. Update the .st file in the /Demo folder to match the drive partitions.
4. Update the Paths in OpenEdge Management for the Demo Database and the AppServer Broker startup paths in localhost:9093 (or localhost:9094 if using latest progress version) See example below for EVENTDemo and what would have to change.
5. Repair the Database using DB_Utilities
6. Start DB/Brokers
Once the database has been moved, be aware that when using the VSI utility to copy Live to Demo the default settings will not be valid. You will have to point to the appropriate drive. Further, all logs will remain in the same log folder unless you change those paths in OpenEdge Management for the Demo Brokers.
If you run into trouble with this and need further assistance from VSI, then we would need to get it scheduled and determine whether time spent would be billable.
