Because the components of ManageWise 2.7 and ZfS 3 are different, this section provides you information on how each of the components of ManageWise 2.7 are upgraded to components of ZfS 3.
This section contains the following information:
If the server meets the installation requirements for the ZfS 3 site server, then you can install the ZfS 3 site server on the ManageWise 2.7 server. The ZfS site server will contain all the discovery NLM software and the other components like the Alarm Manager, Atlas Manager, and MIB Tools. After you upgrade to the ZfS 3 site server, you will not be able to use the data on the ManageWise server or the data on the ManageWise console with the ZfS 3 site server. You will not be able to access the data on the ManageWise server or ManageWise console from the ZfS 3 site server. You will need to run discovery again and re-configure your site server.
To upgrade the ManageWise 2.7 console, you need to install the ConsoleOne snap-ins for ZfS 3.
You can upgrade the ManageWise 2.7 server management agents by installing the ZfS 3 server management agents if the server where you want to install the ZfS 3 agents meets the installation requirements.
The Traffic Analysis Agents for ZfS 3 run on both NetWare and Windows NT servers. To upgrade, you can install the ZfS 3 Traffic Analysis Agents if the server where you want to install the ZfS 3 agents meets the installation requirements.
If you have old trend data from the ManageWise 2.7 Traffic Analysis Agents, then you will need to migrate the data for ZfS 3 Traffic Analysis Agents to use them. For more information, see Migrating Trend Files in the Administration guide.
