App Volumes Database

[josejjcv]

Hi all -

I need to move the App Volumes Database (Version 2.15) from SQL 14 Enterprise to SQL 16 Enterprise. Is there a KB Article on doing this? Its a Single Instance App Volumes Server. Thanks.

First always make sure that the SQL versions you want to run are supported (VMware Product Interoperability Matrices). You should then be able to do the following.

• Stop App Volumes services
• Backup the SQL database on the original
• Restore the SQL database to the new server
• Reconfigure the ODBC connection
  • Configure a SQL Server ODBC Connection​
• Start App Volumes services
• Test and validate functionality
