Migrate BE server with deduplication storage folder from win 2012R2 to Win 2016

Hi,

Anyone in this forum that has been able to migrate BE16.2 with deduplication Storage folder from win2012R2 to win2016.

I follow same procedure as when I migrate from win 2012R2 to Win2012R.

On the new Win 2016 server I am unable to recreate the Deduplication Storage Folder.

16
migrate
Windows Server 2016

    Hi,

    Problem is now solved.

    Microsoft does a change in Locals (region and language) going from Windows 2012 to Windows 2016. This affects the Postgresql database.

    I used Microsoft Local builder and created new locals based on the win2012 version.

    I installed the new locals on windows 2016 server and the postgresql service started successfully.

    Thank's for your help in this issue.

    Regards

    Leif

    Check the dedupestorage\log\pdde-config.log

    Ensure the username and password for dedupe is the same as earlier.

      hi,

      I have confirmed pw is correct.

      Same scenario moving BE dedup to win2012R2 server works fine.
