I recently migrated Orion to a new server. The migration went well, except for report scheduler. Does anyone know how to copy all of the report jobs from the old server to the new server?
Hi,
You will notice that when you create a job there are three components.
1)A Windows Task C:WINDOWS\Tasks\JobName
This job has the following in its Run: Statement
2/3) RunOrionJob.exe Job-<number>.OrionJob
The RunOrionJob.exe and the Job-xxxxx.OrionJob are located in the C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Orion folder.
So you should be able to copy the various jobs on your old install and the tasks. No need to tranfer the RunOrionJob.exe as that will already exist.
Note: 1 thing i noticed was that if i tried to copy and paste a task from the server itself as you would do and then get a task - copy it would not allow you to. I connected from the a test system ( my machine) via a network share and copied the task across. I think you will need to confirm that the admin account settings work or reenter them on the new server. The jobs will be easy to copy as normal. I couldnt fully test this because my machine is not an old sw install with precreated jobs.
Kind Regards
Miron
