Can I migrate the installed OpenAM to another machine?

Thank you everyone in advance... ^^;

My manager asked me to migrate the installed OpenAM (already used) to another machine (newly obtained).

I tried to migrate it by file level. (.openamcfg folder, openam folder, tomcat whole folder, ...)

But, after file migration... first access to /openam, it showed initial page(wizard) again. (no using installed configurations)

So, I should do first step. (amadmin password setting, and so on...)

Hmm... Is there any solution for pre-installed OpenAm instance migration?

If No, I can tell her there's no migration way.

Migrating the files should be enough, however you must make sure that :

  • The .openamcfg folder is in Tomcat's home folder
  • The file inside the .openamcfg folder contains a valid path to the openam folder
  • The .openamcfg and openam folders can be read/write by the user who runs the Tomcat service
  • The webapp context (the part of the URL after the server's IP address, typically /openam) stays the same

Also, when you copy the files, you must first properly stop the Tomcat service, especially if you use OpenAM's embedded datastore.
