Deployment Solution

  • 1.  Server upgrade question.

    Hi,

     

    We have recently moved from WS 2003 to WS2008 for our Altiris Deployment console.

    Unfortunately the old server was shutdown and all records removed from our IP control and DNS services.

    A support team has requested to retrieve jobs form the old deployment console but it will not launch since we have removed it from the Network.

    The kicker is that we cant readd the server to the network due to policies. is there a way to export the jobs or are the jobs stored in spacific folders on the old server.

    Any help on this would be great.

     

    the old server was running 6.9 SP5 and the new server is running 6.9 SP6

    You can try running the axexport command. Something like...

    axexport /f "thefolderIwant" /s myexportedfolder.bin

    This will create a import .bin file from contents of the folder "thefolderIwant".

    For really hosed systems, a trick is to take a backup of the express database and pushed that onto a VM running DS6.9. Then you can just right-click to export jobs as you please.

    Kind Regards,
