moving publisher (distribution service) to another server mahcine

[ali_hijazi]

Dear

Got QlikView server 11.2 installed on a server machine

Now a new server machine is available and we want to have the tasks(reloads, distribution, reduction) run on this new machine

what are the steps to follow to have the distribution service moved to the new server machine knowing that we have immense number of QVWs and tasks defined on them

SCHEDULER IN QMC

no this is not what I want

I have a new server machine (blank) nothing installed on it

I have one publisher license

I need to install only the distribution service on the new machine so that publisher uses the resources of the new machine not the one now

how can I make this happen

Hi Ali,

In this case Install only publisher on new machine.

On machine 1 make sure you off publisher service.

Go to old machine and add new machine url in distribution service,

have a look at attached image.

Follow this discussion too

and the tasks will remain to work?

this is all done just to have the publisher use the new machine's resources (ram ,and CPU)

For task migration you need to follow first post.
