DNA&PC upgrade and changing 1

[rfpui]

Hi all
Now I need some suggestion or helpful information.
In next month I must change DNA PC server and DNA from 5.0 SP8a to 5.1 SP2.
Now DNA work on NT4.0 SP6a and SQL 7 SP4
New PC will be with Win 2003 server and MS SQL 2000 SP3a.
My check list is:
On new PC after Windows and SQL installation
1 install DNA 5.0 SP 8a
2 transfer data from old DNA PC server
3 upgrade DNA from 5.0 to 5.1
4 load SP2 to DNA 5.1

Is my list correct ?
I’m not SQL engineer and I’m not sure that I can transfer data from SQL 7 to SQL 2000?
thanx to all for any suggestion
BR

Hi,

In order to use Windows 2003 server you should use DNA 5.2.

You could use the DNA export / import tools to transfer most of your DMG data.

Active diversions and messages will not be transferred.

Hi Kressmark

Thanks for Your reply

Other words
I can not load DNA 5.1 on W2003 server?
Why?
With DNA 5.2, I see one problem. This application need a license.
For upgrade from 5.0 SP8a to 5.1 on my test server no license was wanted
Now I must change PC and in the future (my be end of this year) I can buy DNA 5.2 but no now.
About transferring data:
All data from DMG are VERY IMPORTANT and very high priority have a EQU description in EMG

DNA 5.1 on Windows 2003 is not supported, thats why.

You should be able to buy DNA 5.2 by now...

The EQU descriptins in EMG must me transfered using SQL queries as there is no export tool in DNA for these.
