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.

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.

There should be a pddb folder in the dedupe\log folder. check the log file there to see why postgres is not starting. Take a look at this article as well https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100038756.html
