Update the Database
The update from the database must be performed separately for each Kofax Search and Matching Server node. The process imports a zip file that needs to be created on a different Kofax Search and Matching Server server and then exported as a zip file using the full export mode. This zip file must be created on a Kofax Search and Matching Server server that is not part of the cluster running in restricted mode.
The update is done via the Command line tool and the user calling the Kofax.KSMS.Administration.exe tool must be a member of the "KSMS Administrators" group created during installation. If the user is not part of this user group, they do not have the necessary permissions to perform this action.
You can update a database by following these steps:
- Open the Command Prompt.
-
Run one of the following commands:
-
Kofax.KSMS.Administration.exe /i NodeAddress="localhost" NodePort="22000" ZipPath="C:\zip\KSMSExportDatabases.zip" ZipFilePassword="PasswordIfAnyUsedOtherwiseBlank" DatabaseName="Database"
This string updates the specified database using a zip file that was created on another node.
-
start wait/ Kofax.KSMS.Administration.exe /i NodeAddress="localhost" NodePort="22000" ZipPath="C:\zip\KSMSExportDatabases.zip" ZipFilePassword="PasswordIfAnyUsedOtherwiseBlank" DatabaseName="Database"
This string also updates the specified database using a zip file that was created on another node.
In addition to the first string, this enables users to type in the echo %ERRORLEVEL% command to see whether the update command was successful or not.
A value of 0 indicates a successful update. A value of 1 indicates an error with the update.
