1) Does anyone know of a simple document that describes how to move an access
datastore to another server?
2) Once the datastore is moved is there anything special I need to do to remove
a Citrix server from the farm? I was planning to just uninstall Citrix.
I have an old XP FR1, SP1 farm that is being slowly removed. Server #1 is the
datastore and server #2 in the same farm. I need to remove server #1 from the
farm. I have searched on thethin.net and Citrix and can?t seem to find a Citrix
document that really explains this in a simple manor (needs to be simple as
I?ve never done this). The best I could find was in a Citrix forum but is it
correct?
1. stop the ima service on the old server
2. copy the mf20.mdb to the new ima server to the following path:
"C:\Program files\Independent Management Architecture\"
3. Start imaservice on the oldserver
4. Create a new DSN (file dsn)entry in the same folder and name it mf20.dsn
(ODBC -Access)
5. call on all servers, except the newserver, in the dos box "DSmaint Failover
NEWSERVER"
6. On the newserver call:
"DSmaint Config /user:citrix /Pwd:citrix /dsn:"C:\Program
files\Citrix\Independent Management Architecture\mf20.dsn"
7. regedit on oldserver and newserver
oldserver
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\IMA\DatabaseDriver\Imaaccess.dll
to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\IMA\DatabaseDriver\Imaodbc.dll
Newserver
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\IMA\DatabaseDriver\Imaodbc.dll
to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\IMA\DatabaseDriver\Imaaccess.dll
8. stop and start imaservice on newserver
9. stop and start imaservice on all other servers
