the Symantec Installation Manager. However, instead of migrating, you can simply
republish all Notification Server 6.5 processes to the 7.0 platform server. Migrating
your published projects does not bring them over to the 7.0 Symantec Management
Platform server in a functional form; they will be broken when they come over to
7.0. All 6.5 projects must be updated with 7.0 components and republished on the
7.0 server for them to work. Therefore, you should republish instead of migrating.
The only advantage of migration is seeing links to your projects in the Symantec
Management Console. It can be helpful to see them in the 7.0 console even though
they will not work until you republish the projects to the 7.0 platform server.
You have the option of migrating the links to all your published Notification Server
6.5 projects while installing Workflow 7.0 through Symantec Installation Manager.
Migrating is easier if you have not yet installed Symantec Management Platform.
If you have installed the platform, you can still migrate, but there are some
additional steps.
To migrate links from Notification Server 6.5
1 On your Symantec Management Platform 7.0 server, install Workflow 7.0
through Symantec Installation Manager.
