Initialize a New Migration Instance

Procedure

Step 1

Log in to your CDO tenant.

Step 2

Choose Tools & Services > Firewall Migration Tool.

Step 3

Click the blue plus button to initialize a new migration instance.

Note

The Firewall migration tool enables you to create up to 10 migrations and launch all of them concurrently—each migration instance opens up in a new browser tab. However, if there are several users provisioned on your tenant, note that you can launch only migrations that you created.

If you want to initialize a new migration instance when you already have 10 migrations, delete one of the existing migration instances.

Step 4

CDO generates a name for your migration automatically; you can use the auto-generated name or change it to suit your needs.

Step 5

Click OK and wait until you see the status change from Initializing to Ready to Migrate. CDO also notifies you with a new announcement on the Notifications pane when your migration is ready.

Step 6

On the new migration, click Launch.

The migration tool opens in a new browser tab and does not require any authentication.

Note

Migrations in CDO are valid for seven days from the date of being created, after which they are automatically deprovisioned. This ensures that CDO resources are freed up from time to time. You can check the dates in the Created Date and Deprovisioning Date columns.

CDO displays the status of all the migrations in the Status column; you can filter out the migrations based on the their statuses. You can also select a migration to see migration details, such as date and time of creation, date and time of start, source and destination device names, and created by on the right pane. Note that when several users are provisioned on your CDO tenant, you can only launch migrations you created.
