We do not want to bring a lot of our old 'trash' issues from our current Orion Install into our new install (preferably).
designerfx I spoke with you during the last SW Lab event. You sent me a link to some scripts to assist with this.
This is just the start of my thread for this install. Appreciate any pointers the community might have.
This is my current situation:
Current Server Win2012R2 with Orion Platform 2018.2 HF5, IPAM 4.7.0, SAM 6.7.0, DPAIM 11.1.0, NCM 7.8, NetPath 1.1.3, NPM 12.3, WPM 2.2.2
SQL server is 2017 run from a different server (not installed locally)
New Server Win2016 (all patched up as of today), I just ran through the offline installer for Orion and installed the latest of the above modules.
I am now sitting at the 'SolarWinds Configuration Wizard' first screen asking for SQL server and credentials.
So, at this moment, I assume I create a new DB on the SQL server since I want to start anew. Then we can use the scripts or other methods to pull in what we want from the old Orion install?
I know for sure we have some old devices/nodes that previous network engineers for some reason didn't feel the need to clean up.
We have some alerts/notifications that are no longer relevant, but others that are REALLY important.
Apparently we had a second poller at one point that no longer exists, but I see its name pop up occasionally on various screens in the current Orion install, we don't want that.
Other things that I am sure I am forgetting to mention.
