Migration SpanVA Server To New Server

If the system with SpanVA installed is being upgraded from Centos 7 to Oracle 8 ( Linux ), Spanva must be version 1.15.3.160-2024. To do this, first the running system must be upgraded to 1.15.3.160 and the same version 1.15.3.160 must be installed on the new server. We will do these steps together.

Phase 1 – Prepare

1-Log into the SpanVA *.153 console.

2-Confirm that the current SpanVA Diagnostics are green status:

a- Click Diagnostics.

b- Click Generate Diagnostic Report

c- Verify green statuses for SpanVa services,NTP servers,and gateway connections.

3-Record network information.

4-Prepare the backup location:

1-Log into the SpanVA console.

2-Click Install Updates.

Phase 4 – Install *.160 new Server

Phase 5 – Backup *.153

After the OVF file is deployed, the backup file we received is restored to the new server.

Note: The area to be considered on the restore side is that if you have removed the SpanVA token information on the CloudSoc side, the restoration process you perform here will not work for you. Therefore, make sure that you do not delete or delete any SpanVA tokens on the Cloudsoc side.
