1. Identify file locations
Files are usually kept in the C:\LOGIC directory on the server. Ensure the
files are current by checking the file dates for recent files. Some
installations also have the mail kept in a separate C:\MHS folder. It will
need to be copied if there are recent files in it.
(optional) If using Office-Logic InterChange, locate the INTER
directory and make sure it has recent files.
2. (recommended) Live file copy of LOGIC, MHS, INTER folders to the new
server
If you would like to minimize down time and copy the bulk of the data
while the system is "live", you simply run ROBOCOPY to "mirror"
the directories to the new server with the "/MIR" option. For example
ROBOCOPY C:\LOGIC X:\LOGIC /MIR /R:1 /W:1
ROBOCOPY is available on newer versions of Windows, and in the
Windows Server Resource kit, or can be downloaded from
robocopy.exe
3. Have all users exit Office-Logic
4.
Right-click Office-Logic Host Monitor, select "Run as Administrator",
select File-Options-Startup. Un-check the checkbox "Run as service". This
will shut down the Office-Logic Host service.
5. (if using Office-Logic InterChange)
Right-click Office-Logic InterChange Monitor, select "Run as
Administrator", select Configure-Options-Startup. Un-check the checkbox
"Run as service". This will shut down the Office-Logic InterChange
service
6. Copy LOGIC, MHS, INTER folders to the new server. If you have already
performed a "live" file copy as outlined in step 2, Use ROBOCOPY
again one last time to make sure all files on destination machine are up to
date.
7. (optional) Rename LOGIC directory on old server to make sure nothing
uses that installation again
8. Remove read/only attribute from
OL.INI in new location
9. Edit OL.INI file in new
location
- remove or comment "ClientMode" setting
- change
BaseUser and BaseMail settings to new directory (local
drive
recommended)
- check for any references to other
network paths
- set SmtpHost if InterChange to be moved to this
machine
10. Run OLWORK on new server
- specify "Connect to
file server"
- specify new global Office-Logic
directory
11. Run Office-Logic on new server, login as
GLOBAL
- verify directories in Help/About
- if necessary, use
Search/Replace to change all paths to new location
(un-check
"move files")
- make sure all users have valid mail directories
specified
12. Download and install latest Office-Logic to
new server
13. Run Office-Logic Host 64 Monitor or Office-Logic Host Monitor (by
right-click and select Run as Administrator)
- from File-Options,
verify global and master dirs
- (optional) set up SSL
certificate
- from File-Options-Startup, if "Run as
service" is checked, un-check the box, hit OK
- from File-Options-Startup, checkmark the "Run as service", hit
OK
14. (optional) Open port 2661 on network
firewall
If migrating to Client/server
- Remove read/only
attribute from OL.INI in OLD location
- Edit OL.INI file in OLD
location, add "ClientMode=1"
under [Logic]
section
If not Client/server and server name changed
- Run
OLWORK to re-install Office-Logic at the workstations
- verify
directories in Help/About
- alternatively, instead of running
OLWORK you can edit the shortcuts
that start
Office-Logic at the workstation and change the server name
- the
remaining workstations can be done after these
instructions
are done
Moving Office-Logic InterChange
Download and update Office-Logic InterChange
- at the end of the
installation, do NOT start InterChange (important)
Run
"Office-Logic InterChange Monitor" (by right-click and select Run
as
Administrator)
- set Global and Master
directories
Start InterChange service
- select
Configure-Options-Startup, uncheck the "Run as service"
box, hit
OK, then go back in and re-check the checkbox.
If
InterChange
- open port 25 (and others such as 80) on
firewalls
