Hello All,
my normal daily background for the past 20 years is Oracle and SQL-Server. Now I seem to be involved in maintaining an outsourced system using Progress. So far I learned a bit about it, but got stuck on trying to start an Apps Server (used by a reporting tool) on a server that has been cloned and sits on a VM running on Red Hat linux.
From this help site I suspect I can't just start the Apps server without changing a few things. One of the would be the configuration file ubroker.properties where I can see my live production Apps configuration.
This is a brief explanation:
Progress KB - How to create a correct UUID in broker definition in the ubroker.properties
Nothing is said as to how do should I proceed if the Apps Server is running on a cloned machine (different IP address and host name of course). I also suspect I cannot use the original production section, instead I would have to copy/paste the settings and rename the section and then link the application somehow to this Apps server (don't know anything yet how it's done in the Prod. system).
Is there any link or any info I can provided with? So far can't find anything using search engines,lucklily I found this forum.
We are supported by an external company, but things are going slow at the moment with getting responses to questions. I am also studying Progress to understand the concept of this product. I am only doing baby steps at the moment, although I must say Progress is really well documented.
Greetings to All.
Richard
