Hi Experts,
Scenario:
We have BODS 3.x installed on Win 2003 server X1 and and its database MS SQL 2005 is on another Win server X2.
We have done a fresh installation of BODS 4.2 and IS 4.2 on Win 2008 server Y1 and its database MS SQL 2008 on another Win server Y2.
The requirement is to upgrade the BODS 3.x to BODS 4.2 SP4.
We are planning to use the BODS 4.2 that is already installed on server Y1.
The following are the steps that I plan to execute. Please provide your inputs.
1. Database backup of the BODS 3.x and backup of admin.xml and dsconfig.txt files.
2. Copy and restore the Repository databases of BODS 3.x from X2 to Y2
3. After the repository DB is copied to Win server Y2, run the repository manager of BODS 4.2 and Upgrade the repositories of old BODS 3.x
4. After the upgrade is completed of the repositories, migrate all the objects using the DSXIupgrade40,bat in the new server Y1. I am assuming this migration of all objects would bring over all the jobs, workflows etc to the new server.
Is this the right way for this upgrade? Did I miss any steps? Please suggest.
Thanks
