For this document the
installation
that is the source of the migration will be called the "old" installation and the target of the migration will be called the "new" installation.
- On the old installation go to System → System Setup → System Wide Settings, turn on Disable Starting All Walks, and click Update. Doing that will prevent scheduled walks from starting during the migration process. Then stop any running walks.
- Backup the settings using System → Backup/Restore Settings → Backup Settings. Include System-wide info and All Profiles, or just the profiles you want to migrate. Backup settings will download the settings file to your workstation.
- On the new installation restore the backup settings using System → Backup/Restore Settings → Restore Settings and choose the backup file you just downloaded.
- If you are using
custom HTML, CSS, JS, or image files,
You can re-upload to the new installation from your own repository or download the individual files from the old installation to your workstation then upload those to the new installation.
- Re-enable the walks on the new installation and start the walks of each profile by hand or let them start by their schedules. Go to System → System Setup → System Wide Settings, turn off Disable Starting All Walks, and click Update.
- The new installation is now ready for use as a replacement for the old installation.
