Moving a Manager

If you must move a Manager from one machine to another, you must take a few things into account:

•

The new Manager needs to have the same fully-qualified domain name as the old one.

•

The directory structure of the new Manager needs to exactly match the old one. In other words, it needs to be at the exact same location in the file system.

Using a different IP address for the new Manager works, but other components on the grid might have cached the old IP address of the Manager. This means you might need to restart your Primary Director. If it is the Primary Director you are updating, you might need to restart all Brokers attached to it. If you are unsure if you must restart, check if your components are logging into your manager as expected.
