How to Move the MBAM 2.5 Websites

  • Article

Use these procedures to move the following MBAM websites from one computer to another, that is, to move the following features from Server A to Server B:

  • Administration and Monitoring Website

  • Self-Service Portal

Important   During the configuration of both websites, you must provide the same connection string, Reports URL, group accounts, and web service application pool domain account as the ones that you are currently using. If you don’t use the same values, you cannot access some of the servers. To get the current values, use the Get-MbamWebApplication Windows PowerShell cmdlet.

To move the Administration and Monitoring Website to another server

  1. On Server B, install the MBAM 2.5 Server software. For instructions, see Installing the MBAM 2.5 Server Software.

  2. On Server B, start the MBAM Server Configuration wizard, click Add New Features, and then select only the Administration and Monitoring Website feature.

    Alternatively, you can use the Enable-MbamWebApplication Windows PowerShell cmdlet to configure the Administration and Monitoring Website.

    For instructions on how to configure the Administration and Monitoring Website, see How to Configure the MBAM 2.5 Web Applications.
