Installation guide

After the new IMPAX 6.5.3 cluster is installed, the following high-level tasks are performed:
1. Restore a cold backup from the previous-version production system to the new IMPAX 6.5.3
system.
2. Upgrade Oracle and the database schema on the IMPAX 6.5.3 system.
3. Convert the DAA entries to PACS Store and Remember on the IMPAX 6.5.3 cluster and confirm
that DAA studies are accessible.
4. Perform de-referencing tasks (remove reference to DAA locations) on the IMPAX 6.5.3 and
previous IMPAX clusters.
5. Attach an HSM server to the IMPAX 6.5.3 cluster and use Volume Migration Tool to migrate
archive data from DAA to HSM.
This is the upgrade method documented for IMPAX AS300 4.5, 5.2, or 5.3 clusters that use DAA
and for IMPAX AS3000 5.2 or 5.3 clusters that use DAA.
IMPAX 6.2 or later DAA consolidation with existing hardware
(Topic number: 125319)
The following diagram depicts an IMPAX 6.2 or later DAA consolidation scenario.With this method,
additional hardware is required to function as the Database Server of a temporary DAA cluster. The
estimated downtime is the time required for the cold backup and the upgrade of the existing
production system to IMPAX 6.5.3.
Note:
The IMPAX 6.5.3 AS300 server platform is Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. Existing servers
can be restaged with this operating system, assuming that the hardware is 64-bit compatible.
All Database Server upgrades are forklift upgrades, involving fresh installations onto restaged
or new hardware.
