Repository replication after migration to new EPO

[haaris]

Hi, 

I have a few servers as a superagent repository in existing epo but i have a question if I migrate it to new Epo then do I need to reconfigure this repository and do full replication or should I continue to do the incremental replication even after migrating it to new epo

I would suggest a full replication so that all the contents are signed with the new epo server repository keys.

Hi @cdinet ,

Is there any issue if we dont do full replication after migration to new EPO infrstructure or its recommended as a best practices

I doubt that there would be any issues, but to be honest, I have not tried it.  Since the content is signed by old server, I don't know what impact that would have.  You can, however, export the public key only for repo keys from old server and import it in new as additional key - that would fix that problem, as then the keys would be recognized.

I have seen some instances where you have to make the SA no longer a repo, delete the entire directory, then make it repo again, but not necessarily due to pointing agent to new server.  Sometimes reinstalling the agent can break a repo - you would have to test.
