Overview

This document will present a scenario of migrating an existing Vital Signs install from a PA-RISC HPUX system to an ITANIUM HPUX system.

Step 1 - Software Dependencies

The following software is required to be installed prior to running Vital Signs.

-AskPlus 8.3.3+

-Python 2.7.3

-Python ConfigObj library


Step 2 - File Migration

The following folders should be migrated from the old HPUX system to the new one retaining their file permissions.

- /ASKPLUS/vsdata - /var/summit/spectrum/LIVE/vsdata


This is possible using the scp command with -rp, r stands for recursive copy and p stands for preserve.

Example scp of /ASKPLUS/vsdata

   su askplus
   scp -rp /ASKPLUS/vsdata askplus@192.168.1.xxx:/ASKPLUS/vsdata


Example scp of /var/summit/spectrum/LIVE/vsdata

   su bolive
   scp -rp /var/summit/spectrum/LIVE/vsdata bolive@192.168.1.xxx:/var/summit/spectrum/LIVE/vsdata

Step 3 - Link Creation

A symbolic link for the jobs directory should be created as root

   su root
   ln -fs /ASKPLUS/vsdata/jobs /VSJOBS
