Task: Migrating DSView 2.x software units
NOTE: This task is valid only when the DSView 3 software is installed on a supported Windows system.
This task updates DS1800 digital switches, CPS appliances or DSR switches within the unit group,
or any of those managed appliances using firmware compatible with DSView 2.x software to

supports DSView 3 software before using the Migrate Units command. The recommended

system using the Import DSView 2.x Database tool (see

A CPS appliance or DSR switch that has been migrated to DSView 3 software compatible
firmware may be returned to DSView 2.x compatibility.
