What's required?

  • The existing data must be on a current major release of your product.

  • OS administrative privileges to run the migration tool.

  • A new single-node installation to import the data.

  • To run the migration tool,

Data that is NOT migrated

  • kerberos settings
  • metering report data
  • security proxy configuration

    For example the MSS Admin password will remain the same before and after migration.

Run the migration tool

Log in to the MSS Admin Console at https://hostname/adminconsole. Click Configure Settings > Migration.

Open the help for more information and detailed migration steps.
