Restore LMS 3.1 to 3.2

[Mario Elia]

Evening,

I am hoping to upgrade my LMS from 3.1 to 3.2 very soon. I have created a backup using NMSROOT/bin/perl backup.pl, and that has completed successfully (took a few tries, but it worked).

With this backup that I now have, can I restore it once I install 3.2 (I will be doing a clean install, not an upgrade)

Thanks

Yes.  See https://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/3.2/data_migration/guide/dmg_win.html#wp1146241 for more on performing a remote data migration.

Thank you jclarke,

Your answer is exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks again.

One more quick question;

Once the un-installation of 3.1 is complete, there is still a CSCOpx folder in my Program Files (Windows 2003).

Should/Can I delete that before I install 3.2?

Thanks

Yes.  And you should reboot before starting the 3.2 installation.

Thank you once again, jclarke.

I hope they pay you well!
