Migrate NMCONFIG file to Host-based Management
One of the steps to migrate from PC-Based management to Host-Based Management is
to migrate the configuration of your DTCs from the PC-Based configuration to the
Host-Based configuration using the Host Migration tool integrated into NMMGRVER.
Before running the Host Migration tool review the section above “Your Host’s
Configuration is Currently PC-Based” and the section “Process for Migrating from
PC-Based to Host-Based DTC Management”. Complete any configuration tasks needed
that are prior to running the Host Migration tool.
Once you have completed the necessary steps prior to running the Host Migration tool,
you can launch the Host Migration tool from within NMMGR. To launch the Host Migration
tool, press the
[Utility]
key on the NMMGR Main screen. On the Utility screen, press the
[Go
To MIGRATE]
key. You will see the following screen.
