What The Zenworks Migration Utility Does; Migrated - Novell ZENWORKS 10 CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT SP3 - MIGRATION GUIDE 10.3 30-03-2010 Migration Manual

and download
Because the ZENworks Migration Utility saves its work files locally, you should plan to always
run this utility from the same workstation in order to provide migration history information that
you can use in both planning and during migration. These work files are not transferable to
other workstations where you might install the utility. You will have disjointed histories if you
use multiple workstations to perform the migration.
IMPORTANT: Novell strongly recommends that you do not run the Migration Utility from
the Primary Server. The Migration Utility's processes are CPU intensive and can noticeably
slow down the server.
Also, Novell's license from Macrovision prohibits installing the utility on more than one device
per Management Zone.
Therefore, install the utility on a supported management workstation.
