Updating the SQL server address (explained)

When you install a system as a trial, or if you restructure a large installation, you may need to use a different SQL database. You can do this with the Update SQL Server Address tool.

With the tool, you can change the addresses of the SQL servers used by the management server, the event server and the log server. The only limitation is that you cannot change the management server and event server SQL address at the same time as the log server's SQL address. You can do it one after another.

You must do SQL updates locally on the computer where you have installed the management server/event server or log server. You cannot do it from the Management Client. If your management server and event server are not located on the same computer, you can still use the tool, but you must run it on both the computer on which the management server is installed and on the computer on which the event server is installed.

You must copy the SQL databases before you proceed.
