Running the Pre-migration Checks

We recommend that you run the following checks before starting migration.

Infrastructure checks

Check whether it is possible to connect to source hosts.

If this check results in errors, do the following: ensure that the servers are running, and there are no network issues or firewall rules that may block connection to the servers. To learn how to resolve the issue, see the section Resolving Issues.

Check whether it is possible to authenticate at the source hosts using the specified username and password.

If this check results in errors, go to System > Migration Manager > Source System > host name > Update Password and check if the correct password is specified.

License checks

Check whether the license in Odin Automation is installed and provides the necessary amounts of resources.

If the check reports that a license is not valid or is not installed, obtain a valid license from Ingram Micro or one of its affiliate partners, and install it.

Check whether the license is installed in the source system.

If the check reports that a license is not valid or is not installed, obtain a valid license and install it.

Source data checks

Check the integrity and correctness of the account data exported from the source system.

There might be issues with user account data that are (1) missing from the source system but are required for migration to Odin Automation, or (2) contain too short, too long, or incorrect values of names, addresses, and telephone numbers, which are not accepted by Odin Automation.

If this check results in errors, resolve the issues as advised by the on-screen recommendations in the Migration Manager.

Service plan checks

Check whether the resources required for migration are present in service templates.

If this check results in errors, resolve the issues as advised by the on-screen recommendations in the Migration Manager.

Check whether the assigned service plans are present in Odin Automation.

If this check results in errors, resolve the issues as advised by the on-screen recommendations in the Migration Manager.

Cloud Infrastructure checks

Check if the source Virtuozzo version is supported.

If this check results in errors, resolve the issues as advised by the on-screen recommendations in the Migration Manager.

Check if source Virtuozzo servers are registered in Odin Automation.

If this check results in errors, resolve the issues as advised by the on-screen recommendations in the Migration Manager.

Refreshing Data About Accounts and Subscriptions

As migration might be a lengthy process, and the source system is not decommissioned, it is possible that new user accounts or subscriptions were created in the source hosting platform after you had planned and started migration from it. To update information about the newly added accounts and subscriptions, go to System > Migration Manager > Source Systems, and click Refresh Subscriptions List.

Checking the Migration Progress

To check the migration progress, go to System > Migration Manager > Migration Projects > Running tab > <migration project name>. When the migration is completed, a record about it is shown in System > Migration Manager > Migration Projects > Completed tab.
