Windows server upgrade from 2003 R2 to 2008 R2 64 bit

FormerMember over 11 years ago

Hello Everyon

We currently have IPmonitor 10.0 installed on a windows server 2003 R2 enterprise edition box. We are planning to upgrade this server to windows server 2018 R2 64 bit. I have a few questions on compatibility before we attempt the upgrade.

Is IPmonitor 10 X compatible with windows server 2008 64 bit

Is upgrading the OS to 2008 with retaining IPmonitor is recommended or we need to install a clean IPmonitor on the new server.

If compatible, do we have any procedure to follow during upgrade.

v10 is compatible with Server 2008 64 bit. Checking on your second two questions...

Hello techveen,
Before upgrading the operating system, I recommend deactivating your ipMonitor license beforehand as the Unique Machine ID will no longer match the License Key. To deactivate the license, simply use the Solarwinds License Manager. It is available at the following location:
http://solarwinds.s3.amazonaws.com/solarwinds/Release/LicenseManager/LicenseManager.zip
After the operating system upgrade has completed, you may then relicense your ipMonitor installation.
Sincerely,
