Using the Migration Utility

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

10 Novell ZENworks 10 Asset Management Migration Guide

novdocx (en) 7 January 2010

If you are migrating data installation that already contains some of the same asset management

data, you might see migration errors or fail in the migration process. See “ZENworks Objects

and Their Uniqueness” on page 41 for more information.

For better migration performance, it is strongly recommended that you purge the ZENworks

Asset Management 7.5 database before you begin. For details, see Section 1.6.8, “Migration

Performance Guidelines,” on page 27.

1.2 Overview

The migration utility is used to migrate inventory data, which is defined by your ZENworks Asset

Management 7.5 collection domains, and asset management data. This data includes the following:

Inventory data

Devices (including deleted devices, if desired. See Section 1.6.1, “Migrating Inventory

Data,” on page 18)

Device history

Local software products

Hardware/software components

Administrator-defined fields (known as user-defined fields in ZENworks Asset

Management 7.5)

Custom reports

Asset management data

Asset management usage data

Asset management custom reports

Asset management administrator-defined fields (known as user-defined fields in

ZENworks Asset Management 7.5)

Catalog products

Discovered products

Purchase records

Licensed products

Software collections

Contracts and date notifications

Documents

Network devices and contract-network relationships are not migrated. Contract-to-network-device

relationships can be reestablished after a network discovery process is run within ZENworks 10

Asset Management.

Inventory data can be migrated by individual device or as a group. Asset management data is

migrated as a group.
