Rehosting 11.0 m030 renaming FV path

I am doing a rehost and the file vault paths are changing.  I don't want it to copy vault data (we have already created stub files in the new location). Can I not just specify the fv path (source and target) but not copy the vault files? Here's what I would have in the rehost.properties file.

 

target.fv.required=true

source.fv.hostname.0= source.intranet.com

target.fv.hostname.0= target.intranet.com

source.fv.path.0=\\source\Windchill_Vaults
#staging.fv.path.0=E:\vaultStaging\vault1
target.fv.path.0=E:\Windchill_Vaults

Not sure

I left them on mine incase the code was looking for a numeric sequence number and started the count at 0.

Are you rehosting between a Unix box and Windows?

The vault locations indicate that you are.

Rehost does not support moving between operating systems.

Hi Ben,

No we have a nfs mount reference on the production system and a local drive on the target system.  Both are windows servers.

Sandra,

That should work. I always copy my vaults over before running the rehost.
