%T Migrating SFX to a New Server
%U https://beta-documents.el-una.org/id/eprint/250/
%X Anne L. Highsmith, Consortia Systems Coordinator, Texas A&M University.    This session will detail the steps necessary to migrate an existing SFX installation to a new server and set up the old server to serve as a test installation. TAMU Libraries has recently completed such a migration and will be sharing its experiences. TAMU is a multi-instance, consortial SFX setup, which provided interesting challenges during the process, as did the migration from a Solaris to a Linux system. Audience members will receive how-to instructions, including a sample migration script, and tips on pitfalls to avoid.
