To move an instance to a different location follow these steps:
- Log on to the Management Console.
- Click on General > Instances.
- Select the instance to move.
- Stop the instance.
- Open the Instance Configuration.
- Move the Base Directory of the Instance with your preferred file explorer to the new location. It is not sufficient just to change the Base Directory in the Instance Configuration. This will not move the instance automatically. You are able to move the Base Directory to a different Instance Host or to a storage, that is accessible from a different Instance Host if you want that instance being run on a different Instance Host.
- Change the Base Directory in the Instance Configuration.
- If you want to instance running on a different Instance Host, change the Instance Host and the Base Directory, if it has changed.
- Close the Instance Configuration.
- Start the instance.
- Doubleclick on the instance and navigate to the Archive Stores tab.
- Verify that all stores are loaded correctly.
- If an archive store is in an error state, because the path could not be found, follow these steps:
- Remember the current Requested State of the archive store.
- Set the Requested State to disabled.
- Select the Set Path command of the archive store.
- Change the path to the new path. You either can enter the full absolute path, or you can enter a relative path from the instance's Data directory, by appending a ~ in front of the archive store directory.
- Set the Requested State of the store back to the previous state.
