Hi,
I may be mixing two different areas here.
Our DEV machine has an MVC web app with SQL Server 2014 backend (database/data warehouse). We also have SSIS, SSRS and SSAS solutions.
Our PROD machine is now ready and we have installed SQL Server 2014. However, our instance names are different on each machine - DEV and PROD. As the db/dw is fully scripted, I can easily modify the scripts to recreate each on the PROD machine. However, the SSIS, SSRS and SSAS projects are currently linked to the DEV instances.
Do I need to manually update each instance name reference in these projects to the PROD instance name before deployment? Or is there a better procedure?
Also, I am are concerned that I will run into problems when I deploy our MVC web app to IIS on the PROD machine. ON our DEV machine, the MVC Identity system automatically created tables in our database:
dbo.AspNetRoles, dbo.AspNetUsers etc
Should I manually detach and attach these tables in PROD before I deploy the MVC web app?
Is it better to maybe make a copy of the MVC web app in DEV and connect this to the SQL Server instance on the PROD machine to ensure it still works, before I deploy?
Appreciate the help!
