15.1 Preparing to Move the Data

Before moving the data from an external Sybase database to an embedded Sybase database, do the following:

  • Ensure that ZENworks is configured to an external OEM Sybase database. The database can be installed on a Windows or Linux device.

  • Install the Embedded OEM Sybase database on the ZENworks Server.

    For more information on how to install the database, for Windows, see Installing an External ZENworks Database for Linux, see Installing an External ZENworks Database in the ZENworks Server Installation Guide.

    During the installation of the embedded Sybase database, you must consider the following points while the Sybase Access Configuration page:

    • The database name can be same as that of the external Sybase database or can be a unique name.

    • Ensure that the user name and password are same as that of the external Sybase database.

    • Ensure that the database server name is unique.
