How to move Firewall Analyzer installation to a new server?
Ensure that the License file in the old server is copied to the new server
after moving the Firewall Analyzer to the new server.
Before moving the Firewall Analyzer installation to a new machine, ensure that the
build of the old installation is latest. If not, upgrade in the old installation to the
latest build and proceed further. To find out the build number:
• You can click on About link in the top right hand corner, the build number
will be displayed in the About pop-up screen.
• If you are not able to open the UI, go to the folder
C:\ManageEngine\Firewall\troubleshooting and open the file
build.properties in a notepad, you can find the build number in the file.
Follow the steps given below to move Firewall Analyzer installation to a different server:
1. Stop the Firewall Analyzer server/service.
2. Check the Windows Task Manager for the processes 'java.exe' and 'mysqld-
nt.exe', if any of these processes is running, kill only the Firewall Analyzer
related process.
3. Copy the following folders (including the files and sub-folders) completely to
another drive or to a mapped network drive as a precautionary measure.
This will help us to restore the settings and data in-case of any issue with the new
machine.
a. The folder, 'MySQL' located under <Firewall Analyzer Home>\.
b. The folder, 'Archive' located under <Firewall Analyzer
Home>\server\default\archive\.
4. Download and install the latest build of Firewall Analyzer from the following link in
the new server:
http://manageengine.com/products/firewall/download.html
5. Once you install the application in the new machine, ensure that you do
not start the application or shutdown the application, if started.
6. Rename the folder <Firewall Analyzer Home>\MySQL as 'MySQLori'.
7. Copy the MySQL folder (which is located under <Firewall Analyzer
Home>\MySQL) from the old machine to the new machine in the same location.
Take extra care and ensure that the Firewall Analyzer is not running on
both the machines while performing this operation.
