Migrate to an new all-in-one install using existing masthead file

  • 1.  Migrate to an new all-in-one install using existing masthead file

    Posted Fri February 02, 2024 12:48 PM

    Have the need to build a new all-in-one install leveraging an existing masthead.  Is it possible to use BES_SETUP_TYPE, BES_AUTH_FILE, BES_LICENSE_PVK_PWD attributes in the install_response.txt file created for a silent all in one install?  The all-in-one UI does not seem to have the option to select an existing masthead file.

    Hello Betsy,


    It's not possible to do this directly.
    You would have to install Bigfix server (IEM) separately.

    Of course, reusing existing masthead can be done assuming that .crt and .pvk (+ corresponding password) are also in your possession and hostname/FQDN of old/new IEM server is still the same.
    If any of those are missing/different you are out of luck.
     
    So, the procedure is to:
    Install IEM server using the old masthead file.
    Install AIO with RSP_INSTALL_IEM parameter set to false.
