The following sections provide instructions on how to use the Novell
®

®
10 Asset
Management Migration utility to migrate data from ZENworks Asset Management 7.5:
Section 1.1, “Before You Begin,” on page 9
Section 1.2, “Overview,” on page 10
Section 1.3, “Installing the Migration Utility,” on page 13
Section 1.4, “Selecting the Migration Source,” on page 14
Section 1.5, “Selecting the Migration Destination,” on page 16
Section 1.6, “Migrating Objects,” on page 17
1.1 Before You Begin
Before you begin migrating data from ZENworks Asset Management 7.5 to ZENworks 10 Asset
Management, consider the following:
If you also have ZENworks 7 Desktop Management installed on your ZENworks Asset
Management 7.5 workstations, see
Appendix A, “Migrating Both ZENworks 7 Desktop
Management and ZENworks 7.5 Asset Management,” on page 37
to ensure that you migrate
the two products in the correct order.
You should back up both source and destination databases.
Turn off the inventory process on ZENworks Asset Management 7.5 before you run the
migration utility.
If you have migrated inventory data with a previous version of the migration utility, you must
use that same version to migrate the asset management data.
The version of the migration utility that you use must match the ZENworks Management Zone
version. The migration utility will not connect to a zone that does not match its version number.
You can only migrate objects once.
Network devices are not migrated.
You need to migrate inventory data before asset management data. If you want to do a staged
migration, do not migrate asset management data until all staging is complete. For more
information about staging, see
“Staging a Migration” on page 18
.
Not all custom reports are migrated. For a list of custom reports that are not migrated, see
Section 1.6.7, “Migrating Custom Reports,” on page 25
.
When migrating to a SQL server, note the following file size recommendations:
The destination data file should be at least 1.1 times the size of the source data file.
The destination log file should be at least 1.2 times the size of the source data file.
