Moving - Repointing test environment Disk Groups and deleting data from old disk groups

[Ed_Faroun1]

Our test environment is being relocated to a different server, currently we have a ridiculous amount of documents in test that we would like to take the opportunity and purge/delete, this is a test environment and we really don't care about the data.

What would be the best practice here? For the Disk Group relocation, should we:

1. Create the Folders in the new share and share them out

2. Copy the OnBase ID Files to the corresponding folders 

3. Repoint the Disk Groups location in Config to the new location 

4. Delete all old volumes in the old share

Would this be the best practice or is there a better practice and would we need to do anything else to clear the Database or deleting the documents would suffice?

Thank you

very good information, thank you all for your 2 cents.

My last question is would Configuration Migration copy over my DIP, COLD, SCAN QUEUES ...etc. configurations over to the new databse? And if someone can point me to where a MRG / Guide would be please.

Thank you

Yes, Configuration Migration will copy over all of your processes to the new database.  You can find more information in the Configuration Migration MRG.

Take care.
