Hi,
I have MirrorSync 3 and would liek to upgrade to 4.
My clients are mostly remote and it would be difficult to get all changes synced to the server cleanly before upgrading to 4.
So, I plan to rn 3 and 4 concurrently during the crossover period.
It sounds like my process will be:
1. Export MirrorSync3 settings.
2. Install MirrorSync 4, choosing the 'Hosting Provider' option during install.
3. Import MIrrorSync3 settings to MirrorSync4 and rename the occurrence from the default 'Mirrorsync' to something other than the MirrorSync3 occurrence.
4. Configure the MirrorSync4 settings in the FileMaker File (I assume there are different MirrorSync Scripts/script folders required for version 3 and v4).
5. Allow everyone to continue syncing as normal. As each user downloads a new solution they will switch from MirrorSync3 to MirrorSync 4.
6. Eventually remove MirrorSync 3.
Can someone who has been down this road please confirm the above strategy.
Is there anything to be aware of in terms of performance when running 3 and 4 on the same box?
Thanks,
ft.
