Restoring a dedicated MPP server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server

To restore MPP server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server, reinstall the operating system and then reinstall the Experience Portal software.

Before you begin

Make sure you have already restored your Primary EPM server.

Take the MPP offline.

Note:

If you cannot stop the MPP through the EPM, log onto the MPP server and stop the process by entering the /sbin/service mpp stop command.
Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server using the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server installation CD-ROM and the exact options you used for Experience Portal.
Reinstall the MPP software from your Experience Portal installation DVD. Verify that you select the same options that you selected during the first install.
Restore the MPP log files.
If you changed the AVB configuration files, restore the customized files.
If all MPP servers have been restored, reestablish the link between the restored EPM server and the restored MPP servers.

	Note:
	If you cannot stop the MPP through the EPM, log onto the MPP server and stop the process by entering the `/sbin/service mpp stop` command.
