History
We installed BigFix on two Physical Servers (PHW-TEM-PRI and PHW-TEM-SEC) and now need to replace them with Virtual servers.
Planned Procedure
- (DONE) - Build DSA Server OS
- (REQUESTED) - Have SQL 2016 installations removed and replaced with SQL 2008R2 to match the existing systems
- Install BigFix in Replication mode using existing Masthead
- Ensure accounts and access match in SQL on the new BigFix Server and the Current BigFix server
- Let servers settle and replicate
- Promote New Server to Master status
- Change DNS Registration so that the Masthead still points to the BigFix Master Server
- Test MFA and fix anything that's not working properly.
