Forum Discussion: http://community.pbspro.org/t/windows-migration-steps-replacement-for-pbs-migration-assistant-bat/1411
Overview:
- Currently we use pbs_migration_assistant.bat script to set environment variables before starting the old server daemon in Windows migration upgrade.
- But in other platform (Linux) we are setting the environment variables path manually.
- This design is for removal of pbs_migration_assistant.bat and make the process of upgrade similar across the platform.
Interface: pbs_migration_assistant.bat
Visibility: Public
Change Control: stable
Details:
Before starting the older server daemon from the backup path, we need to set the environment variables (PBS_CONF_FILE and PBS_EXEC) manually.
Example:
set PBS_CONF_FILE=%WINDIR%\TEMP\PBS Backup\pbs.conf
set PBS_EXEC=%WINDIR%\TEMP\PBS Backup\exec
