Moving Vobs between Win and AIX

Question

Prior to upgrading UCM from 7.1.2.6 to 8.x we need to amalgamate the vobs on a windows server to a common vob sever on aix.

However it appears we have a bit of a Siamese twin set up that from the Windows Region I can already see both sets of VOBS.

When checking, The existing vobs on AIX and Windows share a common ADMIN PVOB (aix).
In Project Explorer Both sets of vobs share a common PVOB and both sets of components are visible together.

I am therefore wondering to move the VOBS (.vbs) from windows to AIX server should I be able to move the vbs across to aix then when I do the various reformats and protects and re do the hyperlink to the admin vob that it should all knit back together?

Answer 1

The existing vobs on AIX and Windows share a common ADMIN PVOB (aix)

That means after dumping (db_dumper/db_loader) and/or reformatting the Vob from Windows to Aix, you should not have to "re do the hyperlink to the admin vob": they should already be there, in the new (moved) Vob.
