Resolution
----------
To move the Data Server to a new machine or set up a copy of a Data Server on
a separate machine, the following procedure should be executed (Unix users must
be logged on as the oracle user and NTusers must be logged in with
administrative privileges):
 
1. Create a .dmp file of the Oracle Metadata for the original (old) Data
Server. There are two methods.
 
      1.1. Method 1.  Use the Data Server Management Utility 
 
            1.1.1. Start the Data Server Management Utility  (execute
                   <Data Server loadpoint>\intralink\bin\proimgr) and select:
            1.1.2. #Server, #Connect Data Server, Enter "system" user's
                   password (default password is manager)
            1.1.3. #Export, #Export Dump File
                   <path to dumpfile>\<dumpfile_name.dmp> ex. d:\folder1\may7.dmp 
 
      1.2. Method 2.  Use the ilink_export script in the
                      <Data Server loadpoint>\intralink\export directory.
            1.2.1. Execute: ilink_export <system user's password>
                   <path to dumpfile>\<dumpfile_name.dmp>
                     ex: ilink_export manager d:\folder1\may7.dmp
                       *NT users must execute ilink_export from a DOS prompt.
 
2. Install a new Data Server of the same build as the original Data Server on
     the new machine. If a file vault on the new machine will be used, install 
     a File Server on this machine first. Otherwise, enter the old File Server
     machine name when installing the Data Server.
 
3. Import the .dmp file (created in step 1) on the new machine using the
     ilink_import script in the <Data Server loadpoint>\intralink\export
     directory.
 
      3.1. ilink_import <system user's password> <full path to dumpfile>
      3.2. Example: ilink_import manager d:\disk1\may7.dmp 
             *NT users must execute ilink_import from a DOS prompt.
 
4. The new Data Server's metadata still references the original File Server
     machine and file vault from the old Data Server.  To move the file vault
     to a new machine or update a copied Data Server to look at a new File
     Server and File Vault:
 
      4.1.  Start the Data Server Management Utility 
            (execute <Data Server loadpoint>\intralink\bin\proimgr) and select:
 
            4.1.1. #Server, #Connect Data Server (default password is manager)
            4.1.2. #Server, #Connect Intralink Admin (use your Intralink
                   Administrator's username and password)
 
      4.2. Register the File Server on the new machine with the Data Server.
            
            4.2.1. #Vault, #Create File Server
            4.2.2. Hostname<enter host of new File Server machine>,
                   Port number <default is 7777>
 
      4.3. Move the File Vault to the new machine and unregister the old File
           Server. If making a copy of the Data                            
              Server, choose to manually move the vault and then copy the files
              in the file vault to the new location.  This will leave the files
              for the original Data Server to access.
 
            4.3.1. #Vault, #Move File Vault
 
                  4.3.1.1. Enter Name of File Vault to move.  Example: SYSPOOL
                  4.3.1.2. Enter New Host name
                  4.3.1.3. Enter New Path to File Vault 
                           *Path to File Vault must not exist
                  4.3.1.4. Enter Password for File Server <default is fschangeme>
                  4.3.1.5. Enter Password for File Server on New Host
                           <default is fschangeme>
 
      4.4. Unregister the old File Server. 
 
            4.4.1.  #Vault, #Remove File Server *All file vaults must be moved
                    off original File Server machine before. File Server can be
                    unregistered.
            4.4.2.  File Server Name to Remove <File Server name>,
                    Password <default is fschangeme>
 
5. If the old File Server is no longer being used, the File Server process
     on the old machine can be shut down and its loadpoint deleted (UNIX) or if
     running NT, use #Control Panel, #Add      
     Remove Programs to remove Pro/INTRALINK File Server.
 
Note: If objects have been checked out to a WORKSPACE as a link rather than
local copy, the user will need to check-out the objects again after the File
Vault has been moved. This TPI applies to all versions of Pro/INTRALINK.
