Migrate Arcserve UDP 5.0 with SQL Server 2005 to Arcserve UDP 6.0 with SQL Server Express Edition After Upgrade

After you upgrade to Arcserve UDP Version 6.0, you can migrate the database to the supported database.

Migration Consideration

Ensure that jobs are not running in the Arcserve UDP 5.0 environment. Stop the data store, if required.

Follow these steps to migrate Arcserve UDP 5.0 with SQL Server 2005 to Arcserve UDP 6.0 after the upgrade:

  1. Stop the Arcserve Console Management Service.

    2. On the Back Up Database dialog, configure the backup destination, and click OK.

      Configure backup destination on the Database

  3. Uninstall Arcserve UDP Version 5.0.

    Note: Upgrading using the Installation wizard is blocked if the previous version of Arcserve UDP backend database is detected as SQL 2005. After you back up the database, uninstall the previous version and newly install Arcserve UDP Version 6.0.

  4. Install Arcserve UDP Version 6.0 with the default SQL Server 2014 SP1 Express Edition.
  5. After the installation is complete, stop the Arcserve UDP Management Service in Windows Services Console.
  6. Install the Database Management Tool - SQL Server Management Studio.
  7. Rename or delete the newly installed default Arcserve UDP database named arcserveUDP.

  8. Migrate the backed up old database data to the new installed default Arcserve UDP database.

    Restore the backend database that you have backed up in Step 2 to the newly installed Arcserve UDP database.

    1. Right click the database, and select Restore Database.

  9. Configure database connection in Console.
    1. Open the command prompt window and navigate to the Arcserve UDP installation path:
      C:\Program Files\Arcserve\Unified Data Protection\Management\BIN
      
    2. Start the process using the following Command Line syntax:

      For UDP 6.0

      DBConfig.exe -c "C:\Program Files\Arcserve\Unified Data Protection\Management\Tomcat\JRE\bin" localhost\arcserve_app

      For UDP 6.0 Update 1
