Change DoDeletes Setting on the vSphere Agent to False
If you migrate from a vRealize Automation 6.2.4 environment, you must change the DoDeletes setting on
your target vSphere agent before migration. This prevents virtual machines from your source environment
being deleted after migration.
Follow the steps in the Configure the vSphere Agent procedure in Installing vRealize Automation to set
DoDeletes to false.
Prerequisites
You have completed the prerequisites for migration.
What to do next
Prepare vRealize Automation Virtual Machines for Migration.
Check Templates in Your vRealize Automation 6.x Source
Environment
Before you migrate from a vRealize Automation 6.x to 7.4, you must check your virtual machine templates
to make sure that every template has a minimum memory setting of at least 4 MB.
If you have a virtual machine template in your vRealize Automation 6.x source environment with less than
4 MB of memory, migration fails. Complete this procedure to determine if any blueprints in the 6.x source
environment have less than 4 MB of memory.
Prerequisites
You are migrating from vRealize Automation 6.x to 7.4.
Procedure
1 Log in to the primary vRealize Automation appliance over SSH as root.
If your vRealize Orchestrator is external, log in to the Orchestrator host machine.
2 Check if there are any blueprints with memory specified at less than 4 MB.
select * from [vCAC].[dbo].[VirtualMachineTemplate] where IsHidden = 0 and
MemoryMB < 4;
where vCAC is the database name.
3 If the script finds any blueprints with memory specified at less than 4 MB, then update the memory to
at least 4 MB.
update [vCAC].[dbo].[VirtualMachineTemplate] set MemoryMB = 4 where IsHidden = 0
and MemoryMB < 4;
where vCAC is the database name.
