1.2. Considerations Before Migration

Since all migrations are unique to a deployment, it is strongly recommended that the entire migration
process be planned in advance. Here are some common issues related to migration.
The Migration Procedure
• Not all steps in the migration processes apply to every deployment. Follow only the steps which
apply to the deployment being migrated.
• Perform all steps in the migration procedure for every instance of each subsystem being migrated.
Always follow the steps for migration in the order which they are presented in the manual, even if
not every step needs to be performed.
• Perform each subsystem migration as a separate migration. Wait until one subsystem migration is
complete before starting the migration of the next subsystem.
