Enterprise Vault 10 to 11 migration on a new server

Hello,

 

We have an Enterprise Vault server 10.0.2 running on a Windows server 2008 and using an Hitachi Content Platform HCP for Exchange archiving.

I would like to upgrade to EV11 but also execute a refresh of the infrastructure :

  • new server hardware
  • new Windows 2012 R2 installation
  • new firmware on HCP.

Could you please tell me if a move of EV SQL database and Vault store to a new EV server running a different version is possible ?

Thanks

Pierre

  • You have a couple choices.

    1.  See if the SSMW will work for migrating from EV 10 to EV 11 on new hardware

    2.  Do an inplace upgrade of EV 10 to EV 11 and then move to new hardware or move EV 10 to new hardware and then upgrade to EV 11
