Basic server migration procedure

To perform an Insight Control server migration installation and migration, follow these steps.

1.

From the Insight software distribution media, install the HP Insight Control server migration
software on an Insight software CMS.

2.

Deploy the server migration Source Agent onto the source physical server.

NOTE:

On a CMS, deploying the server migration tool launches a wizard that guides you

through these migration steps. (See the HP Insight Control server migration User Guide at

http://

www.hp.com/go/insightsoftware/docs

. for more information.)

3.

Create the necessary disks on the destination server(s) using the appropriate disk
configuration tool.

4.

Boot the destination server with the appropriate ProLiant or Virtual Machine Boot CD ISO
file.

NOTE:

The destination can be booted automatically from Step 3 of the migration wizard

or manually booted with the appropriate ProLiant or virtual machine boot CD ISO file.

5.

Complete the remaining steps in the migration wizard on the CMS.

6.

See the HP Insight Control server migration User Guide at

http://www.hp.com/go/

insightsoftware/docs

for suggested post-migration tasks and tests to confirm the readiness

of the destination server for use.
