How to move a GIM client to point to another appliance (GIM Server)?

How To


Summary

The IBM Guardium Installation Manager (GIM™) is a very flexible, powerful, lightweight module of the IBM Security Guardium™ solution intended to ease the management of the other Guardium™ software that is deployed at the DB hosts (S-TAP™, CAS™, FAM™, K-TAP™, the GIM™ itself, etc.).

A very common task for large enterprise level infrastructures, is having the need to move some of the already deployed GIM™ clients to point to another GIM™ server (in this context, the GIM™ server can be any Guardium™ appliance, but it is recommended to use a Central Manager for easiness of management), either by a reorganization of the infrastructure, appliance's role changes, etc.

In this article, we will discuss two ways to accomplish the task.
