Data migration

The scrut_util migration command/utility can be used to perform the following migration operations between a source and a destination Plixer Scrutinizer server:

• Migrate configuration data from a Plixer Scrutinizer 19.4.0 (CentOS) server to v19.5.0+ (Oracle Linux) server

• Migrate historical data from a Plixer Scrutinizer 18.20+ server to a v19.5.0+ server

• Migrating configuration data from a source Plixer Scrutinizer 19.5.0+ server to a destination server on the same version

Migrating both configuration and historical data to a Plixer Scrutinizer 19.5.0+ server requires the source to be on v19.4.0. Historical data can be migrated directly to a v19.5.0+ server from any server on v18.20 or higher.

Important

Because the steps outlined here can potentially result in an irrecoverable state for the source and/or destination Plixer Scrutinizer server, it is highly recommended to contact Plixer Technical Support for assistance. In case of issues, provide the Plixer support engineer with the migration utility logs (/var/log/migrate.log) for troubleshooting.
