ControlPoint 8.9 - Advanced Installation Guide

Moving ControlPoint to A Different Web Front-End Server

If the need arises to move the ControlPoint application from the Web front-end server on which it was originally installed (for example, the machine may have become nonoperational or is being decomissioned), you can install it on a different Web front-end server using the following procedure.

To move ControlPoint to a different Web front-end server:

1In Central Administration, change the url in the default zone for the ControlPoint Web application to a url that includes the new machine name and port number that has already been specified for the ControlPoint Web application (1818 is the ControlPoint default).

Move ControlPoint EDIT URL

NOTE:  It is important to complete this step before installing on the new Web front-end to allow the installer to recognize that the Web application that hosts the ControlPoint Configuration Site Collection exists within the context of the new machine name.

2Install, configure, and activate ControlPoint on the new Web front-end using the instructions for First Time Installation and Configuration.  Provide all of the same information used for the original installation— Service Account credentials, port number, location of the ControlPoint Service database, and so on.

The installer will find and re-use the existing ControlPoint Configuration site and ControlPoint Service (xcAdmin) database, so all settings and historical data will be preserved.
