Step 1: Verifying the import on the target CMS
HP recommends logging in to the target (new) CM
S to verify the data has successfully migrated.
Verification of some key data on the target CMS can help ensure the migration was successful. If the
optional step to record key data items under the
Exporting the source CMS configuration data
section
was performed, use the item counts that were recorded to verify the following after logging in to the
target CMS as a user that has CMS
-
level administrator privileges. If verification fails, attempt the
export and import processes again
.
1.
Verify that the All Systems system list is the same size as was on the source system.
Note:
If the target CMS was a managed system on the source, the count might be
one less.
2.
Verify that users are the same
by selecting

3.
Verify that scheduled tasks appear correct
by selecting
