Hi,
I'm planning EV 9.0.5 to latest 10 upgrades for my 3 systems. Reading all of the guides and I'm fairly comfortable with the process but I have a few queries that I'm struggling to answer, below, any help or advice would be appreciated.
I'd like to move the Indexing service to a different server;
I assume this could be done using Index Server Groups after the upgrade to 10?
Can I just move the Index storage (virtual RDM) from one server to the other?
1 of my systems currently has 2 EV9 servers (and a dedicated SQL box);
Can I move Indexing from both of these onto a new server?
Can the Indexes be consolidated or would I just have multiple Instances?
If I close the current Indexes could I create 1 single Index for my 2 stores? (guess yes, is this a good move?)
The above is a proposed workaround to the hardware specifications of EV10. We are trying to keep to 4 core VMs where possible, all 3 servers in the proposed would be 4 core/16 GB(or more as needed).
Is the above a sound approach? or any more appropriate suggestions?
Thanks
