Update the server name for the VIP

When PME is installed, a factory default VIP is created. The configuration files and folder for this VIP contain references to the server name. You need to replace the VIP that was created during the new PME  installation with the VIP from the old IONESPMPME system. This only addresses the default VIP. Custom VIPs are addressed in a subsequent step.

Note: Do not modify the VIP. PQADVISOR.

To update the server name for the VIP:

1. Find the old and new VIP folders in …\Schneider Electric\Power Monitoring Expert\config\cfg\vip.

   

2. Copy vip.bak and vip.cfg from the old VIP folder (VIP.OLDSERVER in the example) into the new one (VIP.NEWSERVER in the example), overwriting the files, and then delete the old folder.

   This transfers the configuration of the default VIP from the old system into the new PME system.

3. Find the node diagram for the VIP in …\Schneider Electric\Power Monitoring Expert\config\diagrams\nd, delete the new node diagram, if one exists, and rename the old one to match the new server name.
4. If they exist, delete all the VIP tree files, new and old, in …\Schneider Electric\Power Monitoring Expert\config\trees.
