Howdy out there in automation land!! Since I came across my own issues with database size I decided to create a how to VOD on moving a DB from one server to another and the whole re-attach process. This is done for SQL and should be straight forward enough for everyone to follow!
The steps are as follows...
- Attach SQL server to remote storage
- Backup Process and Reporting DB to remote storage
- Move DBs to new SQL server
- Restore both DBs to new SQL server
- Use DB Utility to attach new DB server to CPO
- Use CPO console to remove/re-attach Reporting DB
- Use attached script to help you restore Reporting DB jobs for grooming
And that's all there is to it! Hopefully the below VOD will help you out. The audio is a bit loud so just a fair warning!
Onto the VIDEO!
Thanks as always to all my wonderful readers and those who continue to stick with and use CPO. Big things are on the horizon and I hope that you will continue to use CPO and find great uses for it! If you have a really exciting automation story, please email me it! (see below) I would love to compile some stories and feature customers or individual stories in an upcoming blog!!!
