If you have more than one OfficeScan server on the network, you can use the Client Mover tool to transfer clients from one OfficeScan server to another. This is especially useful after adding a new OfficeScan server to the network when you want to transfer existing OfficeScan clients to the new server.
Note: The two servers must be of the same language version. If you use Client Mover to move an OfficeScan 5.58 or 6.5 client registered with an OfficeScan 5.58 or 6.5 server to a server of the current version, the client will be upgraded automatically to the current version.
Client Mover requires the IpXfer.exe file.
On the OfficeScan server, go to the following directory: \PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\IpXfer
Copy the IpXfer.exe file to the client that you want to transfer.
On the client, open a command prompt and then go to the folder where you copied the file.
Run Client Mover using the following syntax:
IpXfer.exe -s <server_name> -p <server_listening_port> [-c <client_listening_port>]
Where:
<server_name> = the server name of the destination OfficeScan server (the server to which the client will transfer)
<server_listening_port> = the listening (trusted) port of the destination OfficeScan server. To view the listening port on the OfficeScan Web console, click Administration > Connection Settings in the main menu.
<client_listening_port> = the port number of the client computer
To confirm the client now reports to the other server, do the following:
On the client computer, right-click the OfficeScan client program icon in the system tray.
Select OfficeScan Console.
Click Help in the menu and select About.
Verify the OfficeScan server that the client reports to in the Server name/port field.
Note: If the client does not appear in the client tree of the new OfficeScan server managing it, restart the new server’s Master Service (ofservice.exe).
