Performing a data migration 1. Log in to the VCEM 1.0 system as a local administrator. 2. From http://www.hp.com/go/vcem, download the softpaq containing the Data Migration Tool to a location accessible to both the VCEM 1.0 and VCEM 1.10 platforms. 3. Follow the prompts to expand the data migration tool into a folder of your choice. For convenience, HP recommends that this location be common to both VCEM systems. 4. Create a snapshot of the VCEM 1.0 system. To perform this task, open a DOS shell in the directory where the data migration tool was expanded from the softpaq and enter vcmigrate -export filename where filename is the name of the file, including any path data as required that will contain the VCEM 1.0 snapshot. The contents are formatted as a zip file. As a best practice, verify that the chosen filename ends in a ".zip" extension. Figure 1-1 VCEM export 5. You are prompted for a data encryption password. Enter a password. You are prompted to verify the password. The password must be eight or more characters. This password enables the encryption of sensitive data contained in the snapshot. 6. On the VCEM 1.10 platform, log in as a local administrator that also has HP SIM administrator rights. 7. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as required to place a copy of the Data Migration Tool on the VCEM 1.10 server. 8. Open a DOS shell in the directory containing the Data Migration Tool and enter vcmigrate -import filename where filename is the name of the file containing the VCEM 1.0 snapshot created in the previous steps. 10 HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager data migration
