Promoting Control-M/Server in Control Configuration Manager (CCM)

This procedure describes how to promote Control-M/Server data after upgrading both Control-M/EM and Control-M/Server.

Before You Begin

Verify that you have met the following requirements:

• Control-M/Server Migration
• Ensure that the new Control-M/Server status is set to Unmanaged. Setting the Control-M/Server to Managed before the promote process, can cause corruption.
• Do not start up the corresponding gateway until after you complete this procedure. The Promote only affects the Control-M/Server data that is in the Control-M/EM database. It does not need to connect to the Control-M/Server to perform this procedure.

  NOTE: You need to follow this procedure only when the Control-M/Server was upgraded to 8.0.00. If only the Control-M/EM was upgraded and not the Control-M/Server then you do not perform these steps.

To promote Control-M/Server in Control Configuration Manager (CCM):

1. Log in to the new version of Control-M/EM 8.0.00 client and open Control-M Configuration Manager (CCM).

   NOTE: Do not change the version of the Control-M/Server component in the CCM. The Promote Control-M action performs this change automatically.

2. From CCM, select the Control-M/Server that you want to synchronize with Control-M/EM and check the Version column.

   NOTE: If the Control-M/Server version for the selected server is an earlier version than the version of the server that is actually installed (because the server was upgraded), then continue with this procedure. Otherwise, there is no need to promote.

3. From the CCM, select the Control-M/Server that was upgraded, right-click and select Promote Control-M/Server.
4. In the Version field, select version 8.0.00
5. Set the fields, as described in Promote parameters.
6. Click OK.
7. Right-click Gateway and select Desired State > Up.
