Hi Team,
We have a management cluster running R80.40 that manages 2 Cluster Gateways in HA. I would like to copy the policies over to the New Management server ( currently it has a different IP and would like to keep that different IP). We also have new Gateway clusters that we will be moving to so the new design currently has a 2- Management servers in HA (Open Servers) and 2 Clusters of 7000 series appliances in HA. What will be my ideal method to move everything over and do a cutover under downtime. First would be to migrate my current policies over to the new VM server - change IP's so it won't duplicate. Second will be to do export the backup of the gateways and change IP's offline so it won't duplicate. The night of the cutover we will just move cables to the new gateways and call it a day. Please assist in the details of how this can be achieved. Please see attached files of how they are currently configured and new setup as well. Thank you.
Moving current Policies/Database from R80.40 Smart-1 to R81 VM- Open Server - need proper steps

Thanks for the response Bob. We bought new licenses for the new Open Server which now have been applied.
Just to clarify, we have the new management servers up and license have already been applied to them. If you look at the attachment you will see. The old mgmt server name is : FWMGMT1 & FWMGMT2 and the new one is FWSMS-1 & FWSMS-2. Will copying the policies using the migration tool require the names to be same ? Are we not just copying the policies and object etc. Also the IP's will be different on the new management servers R81 with the migration the IP's will change but plan is to change them back. Thanks for the response.
