2 Fabric Manager migration 6. Repeat step 2 through step 5 for each user role you want to edit. 7. Click OK to close the Server Users dialog box. Fabric Manager migration NOTE Data migration to Enterprise edition is only available from Fabric Manager 5.4 and 5.5. NOTE You cannot migrate from Fabric Manager to Professional or Professional Plus. You must migrate to the Enterprise trial or Enterprise edition. NOTE If you have Fabric Manager 5.3 or earlier software, you must upgrade to Fabric Manager 5.4 or 5.5 before you can migrate to DCFM Enterprise trial or Enterprise edition. For information about upgrading to a version of Fabric Manager that meets migration requirements, refer to the Upgrade Instructions for Fabric Manager 5.4 and 5.5. Migration facilitates importing asset information, authentication settings, as well as important configuration settings from your existing Fabric Manager installation to the new Management application installation. All basic asset information from the Fabric Manager repository is imported to the new Management application as part of migration. The asset data migrated includes discovered Fabrics and Switches. Other asset data (such as, name server information, ports, zoning, admin domain, and so on) is collected once the DCFM server starts after migration as part of regular asset collection. Fabric Manager server authentication settings are migrated. If you chose an external authentication type in Fabric Manager, the settings contain the external authentication configuration. User information (Fabric Manager user preferences) is migrated and automatically added to DCFM with default access to 'All Fabrics' and 'Administrator' privilege. Also, the authentication method set in Fabric Manager migrates as Primary authentication and the secondary authentication migrates as 'none'. If the Primary authentication is Switch/RADIUS, the secondary authentication is set as Local. FTP server settings are also migrated. Necessary configuration files and entries are ported to the FTP server in the DCFM installation.
