Data migration of an existing Microsoft Windows CMS to a new Insight Management 7.0 system

<STUDIO_INSTALL_DIR> is the OO Studio installation directory, typically installed at C:\Program

Files\HP\Operations Orchestration\Studio.

For example, assume for Central Default Public Repository, <CENTRAL_INSTALL_DIR> is

C:\Program Files\HP\Operations Orchestration\Central, then <OO

_REPOSITORY_DIR> is C:\Program Files\HP\Operations

Orchestration\Central\rcrepo and the export command is:

`repoutil -export -loginurl "https://localhost:16443" -u Admin -p

MyOOAdminPassword -1 “C:\Program Files\HP\Operations

Orchestration\Central\rcrepo” -2 C:\AnyEmptyDirecotry -x

"/Library/Hewlett-Packard"`

Note:

The safe location is mentioned several times in this white paper. If the

source CMS is to be retained and not used as the target CMS, then the

source CMS can be a safe location. These files can then be copied later

directly from the source CMS. If the same hardware is used for the target

CMS as well, then you must locate some shared storage to be used as the

safe location that can host the copies of the various customer-specific files

noted in this white paper.

Step 4: Creating space for the new target CMS system

• Ensure at least 20 GB free disk space exists for the export file on both the source and target CMS if

Matrix OE is installed. The file size might vary, depending on the number of discovered systems

and on the Insight Management products that are installed. The file can be much smaller, 50 MB, if

only Systems Insight Manager is installed with several hundred systems.

• If there is a remote database server, you must have 20 GB space in the temporary directory on the

remote database server for the import operation.

Step 5: Upgrading to version 7.0

If the target CMS has the Insight Control or the Matrix OE suite installed from the Insight Management

DVD version pre-7.0 installed, you must upgrade to Insight Management v7.0 prior to starting the

migration process.

• The Insight Management DVD 3.0 or 3.1 contains Matrix OE-VSE v4.1.x, which does not support a

direct migration to the Insight Management v7.0 setup, and therefore must be upgraded to v6.0

first and then to v7.0. The version of Matrix OE that is installed on the source CMS can be verified

through the source CMS console HelpAbout menu.

• Upgrade the source CMS to Insight Management v7.0, making sure to include the Matrix OE

version 7.0 suite. For detailed steps on how to upgrade from 3.x to 7.0, see the Insight

Management Installation and Configuration Guide or the Matrix Update Guide found at

• If you are migrating Insight Management from a Cluster CMS, follow the instructions in

Installing

and upgrading to HP Insight Management 7.0 on Windows Server 2008 R2 MSCS for high

availability to upgrade the source cluster to Insight Management version 7.0.

Note:

OS administrative privileges are required for the signed-in user on the

source CMS.
