Best practices for migrating IGEL UMS from Wihndows 2012 R2 to 2016?


I need to migrate my UMS server from 2012 R2 to 2016. I know what once the IGEL’s are registered with the UMS the CA’s are very tricky. Anyone have any ideas or experience with this? I don’t want to upgrade the existing UMS server, I want to create a new server, install UMS, migrate the DB, and then be all set. Thanks for all who read and contribute.

I’ve done it myself just a few days ago on Linux and everything was migrated.

You’ll see two UMS in UMS Administration under “server”. The new (green) and the old (red) one. You can delete the old one.


Worked for me in the past without issues – when correctly migrating the server certificate and using dns alias or dhcp option to point to the UMS server
