Before you upgrade to Software Use Analysis version 2.2, review the upgrading
prerequisites and the types of data that are migrated during the upgrade.
Before you begin
When you use Windows Auth
to connect to
Endpoint Manager server
database in
Software Use Analysis 1.3
and you install
Software Use Analysis 2.2 on a different computer,
you need to make sure that the Windows Auth user is able to connect to
Endpoint Manager database with the
same credentials from
Software Use Analysis 2.2 computer. Otherwise,
you will loose computer properties mapping during migration.
Procedure
- Review the hardware
and software prerequisites.
- Review the types of data that can be migrated:
- Users
- Only active (not deleted) users are migrated.
- Contracts and saved reports
- Contracts and saved reports are not migrated. You can find information
about contracts and saved reports in the migration log.
- Roles
- Roles are not migrated.
- Computer groups
- All computer groups must be migrated.
- Data sources
- Multiple data sources are supported.
Important: To migrate the data, the Software Use Analysis 2.2 server must be able
to access the Software Use Analysis 1.3 database. If you install
both versions of the application on the same computer, you can set
the path to the database as the localhost. If you install each version
on a separate computer, you must provide a valid network path to the
database server.
- Optional: To verify the upgrade and migration
process, examine the information that is stored in the following log
file: SUA_INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY\work\tema\webapp\WEB-INF\log\settings_migration.log
