How to migrate the same copy to a new environment for ISIM 7.0 VA

How To


Summary

The migration to a new environment single or clustering environment for ISIM 7.0

Objective

ISIM7.0 migration option, "how to make ease migration as much as possible".

Plan to migrate a new single or  cluster environment.

 

Environment

ISIM 7.0.1.3 single, and existing data in the DB2 /SDS

 

Steps

Case 1

The existing data in DB2/SDS and the existing ISIM 7.0.3 and plan to migrate to a new environment either single or cluster on ISIM 7.0.3 .

 

Consideration If no downtime is not your concern, since the existing LDAP/database used, the current environment has to be down for while until the new configuration is done.

 

Possible Solution:

  • Create new ISIM VA env using 7.0.1.3 ISO, then, you configure the primary first with the new db/ldap instances, and the once setup is completed
  • Then, after clone the existing ldap/db from other machine, and go to dashboard and do the reconfigure db/ldap to connect to the DB/LDAP
  • Optional :  for clustering environment, create the new cluster to join the new ISIM VA 7.0.1.3
  • Import the keystore from the older ISIM 7.0.1.3 to the new ISIM VA7.01.3
  • Optional :  for any custom jar / custom labels, import those
  • SSL certificate has to be imported for the new environment again (previously done with the existing ISIM VA.) so that the ISIM adapter/SDI would not be impacted.
  • Email Server configuration manually
  • Manage custom properties again

 

Case 2

 

The existing data in DB2/SDS and the existing ISIM 7.0.3, and plan to migrate to a new environment either single or cluster on ISIM 7.0.3.

 

Consideration Less downtime for current environment however, if you prefer a new environment for DB/LDAP machine.

 

Possible Solution:

  • Create new ISIM VA env using 7.0.1.3 ISO with a new db/ldap environment, so it has no data.
  • export/import data from db/ldap, and import those to the new db/ldap environment
  • run reconfigure option against the new db/ldap again ( prefer all same name of db/ldap host, and credentials and etc, make sure the IP is resolved by the host.)
  • Optional :  for clustering environment, create the new cluster to join the new ISIM VA 7.0.1.3
  • Import the keystore from the older ISIM 7.0.1.3 to the new ISIM VA7.01.3
  • Optional :  for any custom jar / custom labels , import those
  • SSL certificate has to be imported for the new environment again (previously done with the existing ISIM VA.) so that the ISIM adapter/SDI would not be impacted.
  • Email Server configuration 
  • Manage custom properties again
 

 

 

Additional Information

Requirements

The same fixpack and same hostname/machine name for all of VA and Cluster environment

Before making any changes on ISIM VA or Database or LDAP machine, VM level snapshot is required and Database /LDAP  backup

You may run after running reconfigure - If they face some issue with SIB or messaging engine then they can clear SIB tables. Please check systemout.log

Execute commands from both "For a single-server configuration" as well as "For a clustered configuration"

How to reconfigure database

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/de/SSRMWJ_7.0.1.3/com.ibm.isim.doc/configuring/tsk/t_managing_dbconfig.htm

Before you reconfigure, create a snapshot to recover from any configuration failures. See Managing the snapshots.

From the Database Server Configuration table, select a record. For example, Identity data store.

Click Reconfigure.

In the Edit Identity data store details window, edit the details. For more information, see Table 1.

Click Save Configuration. A window opens that displays the certificate information.

Click Yes to confirm.
