Moving your Virtual Iron Management Server From One Physical Node to Another

Do you need to move your Virtual Iron management server to a new physical node. The Virtual Iron KnowledgeBase has an article to show you exactly how to do this.

The full article is here, but the basic steps are:

- Backup your existing management server installation and shut down the virtualization manager service.

- Disconnetct the management network cable.

- Install the management server on the new physical node (be sure the IP address on the new node is the same as the IP on the old node).

- Copy the backup from the first step to the new management server (the full article has details on this).

- Go to the /opt/VirtualIron/VirtualizationManager/etc or Program Files\VirtualIron\VirtualizationManager\etc directory. You'll need to edit a few files as detailed here.

- Start the new virtualization manager service, which will auto-discover your managed nodes.
