Migrating Data from Legacy Deployments

You can migrate your data from a legacy installation to the new container-based deployment.

Use the new migration tool to export data from your previous installation into a zip file. Then import the data into the new installation.

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.

  • There are detailed migration steps, including a complete list of what data can be migrated to the new installation. Open MSS Administrative Console > Configure Settings > Migration.

Data that is NOT migrated

  • kerberos settings
  • metering report data
  • security proxy configuration
  • passwords

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