Hi F5user13,
the configuration and license transfer is controlled via DB parameters (can be found in /config/BigDB.dat):
tmsh list sys db liveinstall.*
sys db liveinstall.checksig {
value "disable"
}
sys db liveinstall.longmode {
value "enable"
}
sys db liveinstall.moveconfig {
value "enable"
}
sys db liveinstall.movelicense {
value "enable"
}
sys db liveinstall.packageset {
value "default"
}
sys db liveinstall.saveconfig {
value "enable"
}
sys db liveinstall.savelicense {
value "enable"
}
It will be necessary to modify them before installing the software to the new installation volume ("moveconfig" transfers to the target volume):
tmsh modify sys db liveinstall.moveconfig value disable
So if you are sure, the target volume still has the configuration you want to have, then everything should be fine just to switch the default boot partition and reboot:
switchboot -b HD1.2
full_box_reboot
To be on the safe side you can try to mount the HD1.2 configuration volume to pull a backup of the configuration directory:
lvmdiskscan
mkdir /mnt/cfgdir
mount -t ext3 /dev/vg-db-sda/set.2._config /mnt/cfgdir/
Now you have full access to the passive volume to pull backups.
Be aware, that you need to refresh the license of your system when applying a new S/W version.
Thanks, Stephan
