Hi,
I have an existing SUN server that has a SAN storage installed on it. It also has softwares like Appwrox(scheduler), Taradata (database client), Samba Share and a few more installed on it.
Now suppose that I have a new unix server server and i switch the same SAN store from the old unix box and attach it to the new unix box. Will all the software installed work as is or will I have to reinstall all of them?
Thanks.
Well - all depends.. you may have gotten lucky and the previous admin may have installed all software on the san storage - with no device files etc on local disk...
But... Chances are... not everything is on the san and 50% are on the local disk..
If you are still connected to the old server.. you are best to remove those packages and then re-install when on new server.. Thats my thought anyway unless anyone has any better idea's
