7.3 Upgrade Path, Legacy Hardware

Upgrades should be exclusively done by technicians that are trained and certified by Kofax!

7.3.1

Upgrading from a Model 1xx/2xx/3xx to Model 305 or Third-Party Server

Licensing

Get new license keys for the new system. In urgent cases you may use the KCS test license keys. Note: if

the system was running with a test license key before, it will refuse to work on a test license key for a

certain period of time

(see Chapter „test license keys‟ in this manual).

OS and TCOSS HDDs

Draw a backup before you start any activities!

Setup new hardware with new operating system.

If the legacy system uses SCA HDDs (with just one single connector for SCSI and power supply) without a

RAID controller, you may physically transfer the disk to the new system and eventually copy the data

internally.

If you want to reuse the old HDD, install the appropriate driver for the new SCSI controller on the system

disk before transferring the disk to the new system.

From the old system export the Registry structure and copy it to the new system. Start TCOSS setup,

TCOSS will automatically detect the old configuration by the Registry.
