Hi Steen Bogo,
If we are talking about migration of some data between two servers where same version of SMP is running, then:
1. For Computers with GUID, you mean to save same GUID of client PC after migration from 1st SMP 7.6 HF7 to 2nd SMP 7.6 HF7?
You're going to migrate other Client PC data classes? Such as "Basic Inventory", "Computer Events", etc?
This can be done, using "Resources" stand-alone replication rule.
2. You can move all filters in single "Folder" and manually export this folder in .xml file from 1st SMP 7.6 HF7 and then manually import this .xml file into 2nd SMP 7.6 HF7.
You can use "Items" stand-alone replication rule for this purpose as well instead of manual export/import.
3. Yes, use Software replicator.
4. You can manually export each "Software purchase" and "Purchase Orders" one-by-one from 1st SMP 7.6 HF7
and then manually import them one-by-one into 2nd SMP 7.6 HF7 via mouse right click menu on "Software Licensing" folder
--// Suspect that "Software purchase" and "Purchase Orders" have some associations with Locations, Users. If they will not present in "Symantec_CMDB" database, then after import you can lose these associations with missed resources for Software purchase and Purchase order..
*************************************************************************************
I see that this order should be considered to perform migration:
- Software packages are migrated
- Computers are migrated
- Filters are migrated
- Software Licenses and Purchase orders migration.....
Note! If "Software Licenses" and "Purchase Orders" have associations with locations, users, etc, then locations, users and other associated resources should be migrated before you will start import of "Software Licenses" and "Purchase Orders".
--// Keep backup of "Symantec_CMDB" database on new SMP 7.6 HF7 server.
