Hello everyone,
are there any pitfalls, or additional steps to be taken when migrating a single dma in a dms to a new hardware?
Or does the standard-procedure of Backup -> Fresh Install -> Restore work without issue in this case as well? What if the IP of the DMA might change in the process?
Best Regards,
Robert
Fresh install is a must-have to avoid issues with timestamps pre-dating the destination cluster.
For this reason, I'd keep the fresh install and wouldn't use the backup, but rather rely on CSV upload or .dmimport packages to create your views, elements & services in the new environment.
The Change of IP is a documented procedure - I'd change the IP before clustering - make sure that change of IP is not also associated with a change of NIC (that might require to regenerate the DMA license).
Some of the considerations here might also apply:

Thank you Alberto,
I never even considered this approach and will try it.
Best Regards,
Robert
