Restoring the database on the new SQL Database
Server
(Topic number: 7627)
4.
CAUTION!
Perform this task only when replacing an existing server with a new server. Be very careful
not to delete any live database files. Perform this procedure only on a new server that has
not had any clinical use, even as a training server. Do not perform this procedure on any
production, training, or traveling servers.
When replacing the existing server with a new server, you first install the IMPAX 6.5.3 server software
on the new server. You then restore the backed-up database on the new server, as described in this
topic, before upgrading the schema.
To restore the database on the new SQL Database Server
1. Ensure that the new server database partition is as large as the original physical data files.
Independent of the size of the backup, the restore causes the new data files to be as large as the
original ones.
2. If not already done, shut down related services.
a. To stop the IMPAX services, on all servers in the cluster, open a command prompt and
type
stopall.bat
b. Shut down all applications that usually connect to the SQL Server database. Under Services,
stop the SQL Server agent. Also, shut down the SQL Server Query Analyzer when not
using it as part of the restore process.
c.
On the Application Server, open the Windows Administrative Tools and select Services.
Right-click each of the following and select Stop: IMPAX App Server Data Manager,
IMPAX Audit Event Log Manager, IMPAX Dicom Object Sender, IMPAX Distributed
License Manager, IMPAX Messaging Service, and World Wide Web Publishing.
3. Before starting the restore, confirm that the directory that will contain the mvf database file
has the correct permission:
a.
In Windows Explorer, right-click the folder and select Properties.
b.
Switch to the Security tab.
c.
Click Edit.
d.
Click Add.
e.
Select ImpaxSQLUser and click OK.
f.
Grant Full Control to ImpaxSQLUser and click OK.
