• The LCS stores the test data and student responses in a database on the hard disk to prevent any data loss in the event of a computer crash or failure. If you want to move the LCS to a different server, follow the following instructions: • Make sure that there are no students taking the tests using LCS. • Stop the LCS on your old computer. • Install the LCS version on the new computer. • The test data and student responses are stored in the data folder within the LCS installation folder. Copy all the contents from the data folder on your old computer into the data folder on your new computer. • On your old computer all the configuration files are stored in the conf folder within the LCS installation folder. Copy all the contents from the conf folder on your old computer into the conf folder on your new computer. • Reconfigure the CAL testing engine to use the LCS installed on the new computer.
