Hi all,
i'm currently moving our TFS Server from one hardware to another. The new server is in the same domain, but it will have a different machine name. Both servers work as single server.
For the moment, on the new server :
- i installed TFS
- i restored the TFS databases coming from our first server.
I'm now in the process of running "tfsadminutils renamedt" and "tfsadminutils activateat".
My problem is that i do NOT want the old server to shut down during the move. I want the old server to continue running until we make the final move. I want the users to be still able to work on the old one while i'm moving the TFS server. Is that possible
When i run the "tfsadminutils activateat" command, it says me "Ensure that the previous Team Foundation Application Tier on 'OLD_SERVER' has been stopped before you continue."
Another question regarding the SP1. Does the SP make any changes on the TFS database schema In other words, is that possible to apply the SP1 before moving the old server databases (the old server do not have SP1 installed).
Thank you for your help
Regards,
Alexandre

TFS Server Move : tfsadminutil + SP1 questions
Jweige
Well ok i have the answer for my first question. Tfsadminutil activeat <newserver> will not shut down or make any changes to the old TFS application-tier server.
Concerning the SP1, as another post in Setup forum suggest, i will install it after having moved the database.

Hi Alexandre,
There has to be one to one relationship between AT and DT as we store the AT information in DT. Now when you run activateAt command it just warns you that you should make sure other server has been shutdown so when we change the information in DT about connected AT there should not be any problem. In your case you have completely new installation of ATDT so you should not face any problem.
I guess you figured that out already.
Please let me know if you still have questions.
