Procedure on the Destination system

  1. Integrate any saved PLId to port maps into the devices file:

    /usr/Realman/RealityVersion/files/devices	(UNIX)

    or

    Drive:\Realman\RealityVersion\files\devices	(Windows)
  2. On UNIX, copy any saved printer interface scripts into: $REALROOT/files/interfaces.

  3. On UNIX, check that any RPQs that were installed on the old system are available on the new system. If not, contact NEC Software Solutions.

  4. Create a new database using the mkdbase command. (This command has a menu interface when only the command is entered - see Set-Up After Installation in the appropriate Installation Guide.) The new database must be large enough to hold the data transferred, as noted after saving the source database.

  5. Restore any customised database configuration by integrating the contents of your saved configuration files with those in the directory/folder:

    DatabasePath/configs/config			(UNIX)

    or

    DatabasePath\configs\config			(Windows)
  6. Log on to the SYSMAN account. Then load the FILE-SAVE tape or virtual tape image.

  7. Enter the following sequence of commands to restore your system/database:

    ASSIGN =TAPE n n = tape unit No.
    T-REW
    T-FWD
    T-RDLBL 1
    T-FWD
    ACCOUNT-RESTORE * (O
  8. Run SYS-UPDATE, responding to the prompts as described in the SYS-UPDATE section of the Reality on UNIX Installation & Upgrade Guide or the SYS-UPDATE section of the Reality on Windows Installation & Upgrade Guide, as appropriate.

    Important Note

    This must be run before you log off or you may not be able to log back on.

  9. Integrate any customised system file items that were saved from the source system/database.

  10. Carry out FILE-SAVE and VERIFY-SAVE.

  11. Start Transaction Processing, if required.

  12. Enable logons (use ENABLE-LOGONS from TCL, or the unlockdbase host command).
