Client Mover I (IpXfer.exe) Client Mover I can transfer clients from one server to another. The two servers must be of the same type (that is, both HTTP-based or both file-based) and must be the same language version. You can only run this tool at the command prompt. \\osceserver\ofcscan\admin\utility\ipxfer\ipxfer.exe -s <server_name> -p <server_listening_port> -m 1 -c <client_listening_port> \\osceserver\ofcscan\admin\utility\ipxfer\ipxfer.exe -s 10.1.2.68 -p 8080 -m 1 -c 45726 -s ipaddress (ofcscan.ini:MASTER_DOMAINNAME) -p HTTP port (ofcscan.ini:MASTER_DOMAINPORT) -m 1=HTTP,0=FILE -c client port (ofcscan.ini:CLIENT_LOCALSERVER_PORT) ofcscan.ini = \\osceserver\ofcscan\ofcscan.ini make sure SP2 firewall is not a problem. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have more than one OfficeScan server on the network, you can use the Client Mover tool to transfer clients from one OfficeScan server to another. This is especially useful after adding a new OfficeScan server to the network when you want to transfer existing OfficeScan clients to the new server. Note: The two servers must be of the same language version. If using Client Mover I to move an OfficeScan 5.58 or 6.5 client registered with an OfficeScan 5.58 or 6.5 server to a server of the current version, the client will be upgraded automatically to the current version. Client Mover I requires the following file: IpXfer.exe -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To run Client Mover I: On the OfficeScan server, go to the following directory: \PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\IpXfer Copy the IpXfer.exe file to the client that you want to transfer. On the client, open a command prompt and then go to the folder where you copied the file. Run Client Mover using the following syntax: IpXfer.exe -s <server_name> -p <server_listening_port> -m 1 -c <client_listening_port> where: <server_name> The server name of the destination OfficeScan server (the server to which the client will transfer). <server_listening_port> The listening (Trusted) port of the destination OfficeScan server. To view the listening port on the OfficeScan Web console, click Administration > Web server in the sidebar to go to the Web server screen. 1 The HTTP-based server (you must use the number "1" after "-m") <client_listening_port> The port number of the client machine -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To confirm the client now reports to the other server, do the following: On the client machine, right click on the OfficeScan client program icon in the system tray. Select OfficeScan Main. Click Help in the menu and select About. Verify the OfficeScan server that the client reports to under Communication information, Server name/port. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: If the client does not appear in the domain tree of the new OfficeScan server to which it is registered, restart the new server’s Master Service (ofservice.exe). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OSCE 5.5 -q <internet settings force-change switch> Should always be set to 1. The reason for this is that older versions of the IPXFER utility (prior to OSCE 5.5) is sometimes unable to migrate some clients correctly. It was found that the values in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\TrendMicro\PC-cillinNTCorp\Internet Settings registry hive would still reflect the previous server. Setting the value to 1 forces the changes to the registry hive.
