1 Actions - DAM v4.6.1

1.1 Pre switch

Depending on the size of the database between 2 and 6 hours should be expected as shut-down- time.

1.2 Switch action

Note: During this time all new data in Digizuite™ DAM will not be saved.

The following steps must be followed in order to implement the database change correctly.

WEB server

  • Stop DigiMonitor + DigiMonitorPluginExecutor
  • Stop website (Digizuite™ DAM)

Batch server

  • Stop DigiBatchService
  • Stop DigiBatchSubmitService

SQL server:

  • Take database dump from #SQLSVR_OLD.customer_dam (+_jobs)
  • Stop #SQLSVR_OLD.customer_dam (+_jobs) (to assure only new DB is running)
  • Restore the database to #SQLSVR_NEW.customer_dam (+_jobs)
  • Create users admin_customerdam + admincustomer_dam_jobs (+schemes) on both databases (as in the old databases).
  • If any JobAgent jobs - move these manually and make sure they match the intended!

WEB server:

  • Create new database reference (e.g. use DigiZuiteUpdater) to #SQLSVR_NEW.customer_dam
  • Change database reference in:
    • web.config ([siteinstallpath]/web.config)
    • DigiMonitorPluginExecutorService.exe.config ([DigiMonitoPath])
    • DigiMonitorService.exe.config ([DigiMonitoPath])
  • Change SqlConnection in DigiMonitor.config (Data Source)
  • Restart DigiMonitor/DigiMonitorPluginExecutor (Windows Services)

Batch server:

  • Create (/merge to regedit) new databaseref #SQLSVR_NEW.customer_dam
  • Configure DigiBatch
    • Add #SQLSVR_NEW.customer_dam_jobs to jobengines (+ normal implementation)
    • Remove #SQLSVR_OLD.customer_dam_jobs from jobengines
  • Stop/Start all DigiBatch services (Windows Services)

Test the Digizuite™ DAM and any attached portal.

1.3 Post Switch

When test is successful:

SQL:

  • Detach #SQLSVR_OLD

WEB:

  • Remove old databaseref #SQLSVR_OLD.customer_dam (+jobs) from regedit (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/DigiEyeZ/DigiBatch)

Batch server:

  • Remove old databaseref #SQLSVR_OLD.customer_dam (+jobs) from regedit (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/DigiEyeZ/DigiBatch)
