Hi.
I have a cluster:
1 x DB
1 x WEB
5 x ASTERISK
I need to replace old WEB server (which is on Vicibox 4.0.3) to new one (Vicibox 6 or 7).
1. Can I just simply install new WEB server on the same IP and name?
2. Or do i need to change some settings on DB and ASTERISK server after install new WEB server?

dedicated web-only VICIdial servers are the easiest ones to install in a cluster, just follow the dedicated web server instructions for VICIbox and you should be all set. No DB changes needed. If this is an existing system, and you have uploaded audio to the Audio Store, you will probably want to do a backup with the ADMIN_backup.pl script on the web server first, so that you can move your audio store content over to your new web server. If you are adding a new web server to an existing cluster, that step will not be necessary.

Thank you mflorell.
One more question: should I need to use vicibox-install --restore or just vicibox-install ?

If this server will be hosting the audio store, you will likely want to use backup and restore. If not, then just the install will probably work just fine.
