Migrate Objects, Policies, Users, and NAT from one MGMT console to another

Hello, I need to migrate objects, object groups, users, and NAT from one console MGMT to another. I would like to know how to perform or transfer the objects via commands without affecting the database. Likewise, the IP address of the old console will be updated to a new IP on the new console. How do you recommend I transfer it?

Thanks

Hi @the_rock 
I have a customer who only needs to synchronize objects between two different SMS servers, so this should not be considered a migration or upgrade scenario.

If it's a complete DB migration then the_rock has it right, if it's a merge of two DBs then you're looking at API calls. CP Professional Services have a service they can offer for this task or I think they may have been a tool published on here for it?

Then what Emma suggested makes sense.

If the destination management server is NEW (without existing configuration), use migrate_server per the relevant installation/upgrade guide.

If it's an existing management and you want to import objects/rules from a different management server, then it requires using a different tool, such as: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/API-CLI-Discussion/Python-tool-for-exporting-importing-a-policy-... 
This will require some manual steps as things like SIC will need to be re-established and certain objects will need to be manually (re)created and updated. 

Or, as @emmap said, we can assist with this through Professional Services.
