License Manager migration and update to Directory Server

Installation and Upgrades License Manager
Updated March 17, 2016
asked on March 17, 2016

Hello

We're planning to update our client's Laserfiche from 9.1 to 10, right now our client have the license manager within the Laserfiche Server, so we're trying  to separate the Directory Server from the Laserfiche Server. the Databases are stored in a Separate VM so they won't be touched.

But I have a couple of questions regarding this approach.

Can I have both versions running at the same time on separate VM's or do I need to detach the database and unregister the License Manager First? maybe using a temp license for Directory Server so I can configure it and reduce the downtime.

If I install Directory Sever will automatically update the database from License Manager 9 even if is not installed in the same machine?
 

 

Thanks

Amir

Amir, 

Regarding Rio customers , only one activation key is provided to setup either a License Manager or Directory Server.  The activation process for Directory Server will detect the activation is currently in use in a different machine and therefore will not allow to activate in a different machine , until the activation key gets release from the other system where License Manager is installed. the upgrade process from License Manager should not take long time to process, the upgrade process will basically upload the already existing data from the license database (this is the license manager database file that contains all setups and users that you have already configure , into a new database system for Directory Server in this case SQL ).

By installing Directory Server on the same computer hosting License Manager  8, the installation process automatically detects the existing installation of License Manager and upgrades the installation to Directory Server. There will be an option to import data from License Manager 8 licensing database for further details on how to import the license database file please review this link 

If you need License Manager 8 and Directory Server both running in the same system then you need to request a temporary activation key , for this please contact your Regional Manager.
