Hi Guys,

I have installed Windchill in a Workgroup environment. Before moving to production, I plan to migrate it to a Domain environment.

Please suggest the best approach for this transition.

If anyone has an article or SOP, please share it and guide me.

 

Regards,

Aj

Use the rehost utility if the server Windchill is running on is changing hostnames or domain names.  The rehost utility can also be used if moving Windchill to a different server entirely.  If the resources (RAM, CPU cores, etc.) are different, make sure to run the Windchill Configuration Assistant (WCA) afterwards as well.
