1. In the target CMS, open Windows Explorer.
2. Navigate to <SIM Install Path>\config\migration.
3. Remove the HPIOP2.xml file from the <SIM Install
Path>\config\migration directory.
4. Open the HPIOAux.xml file and update the following line from:
<DependentOn>HPIOP2</DependentOn> to:
<DependentOn>lsm</DependentOn>”.
5. Remove the HPIOP2.xml file from the <SIM Install
Path>\config\migration directory.
The import CLI command is
mximport [-f<filename>] [-p <password>]
Where the parameters are as follows:
-f—Optional. Can be used to specify a different filename or path for the export archive. The default
file name is Products.zip and is placed in the <SIM Install Path>\data\configdata-
import directory on the source CMS.
-p—Optional. Enables the password to be passed in on the command line for non-interactive
operations such as a script. This must be the same password that was used to encrypt the exported
file. If –p is not specified, the user is prompted to enter the password. HP recommends not specifying
–p on the command line for greater security.

–v—Mandatory. Used to specify the cluster IP, also known as the MSCS cluster virtual server IP
address of target CMS.
–n—Mandatory. Used to specify the cluster name/host name, also known as the MSCS cluster virtual
server name of the target CMS.
Note:
Cluster Name/Host Name must be a fully qualified host name.
